• Warming the cream is important, otherwise the filling won’t smoothen. You don’t need to boil the cream, but it needs to be hot.

• Slicing the strawberries thin is important, it takes better!

• Brushing the strawberries with jam, helps give it a shine and also adds flavor.

• It lasts well in the fridge for 2-3 days.
