Notes
- Chill the strawberries before assembling – This keeps them firm and helps the kabobs stay fresh longer.
- Add whipped cream just before serving – This keeps it from melting or soaking into the cake.
- Drizzle with chocolate or caramel – For an extra fancy touch and more flavor.
- Don’t overload the stick – Too many pieces can make it hard to hold and eat.
- Use flavored whipped cream – Try vanilla, strawberry, or even lemon for a flavor twist.
