Santa Strawberries

Recipe source: http://bit.ly/2eJvOaM

Ingredients:

• 1 cup thickened cream

• ¼ cup sifted icing sugar

• 2 punnets strawberries

• 2 soft liquorice sticks or 20 raisins

​Method:

1. Gather all ingredients together.

2. Whip cream and icing sugar together until quite firm.

3. Hull the strawberries and then cut the tip off each. Sit each strawberry on paper towel to soak up the juice.

4. Fill a piping bag (or icing press) with a fluted nozzle with the cream mixture and pipe it onto the cut surface of the strawberry to create a head.

5. Using the tip of the nozzle, join the cream and pipe a liitle "beard" for the Santa halfway down the side of the strawberry. It's imoportant to make these join up so the cream on the head takes the weight of the cream from the beard. Place tip of strawberry on cream.

6. Pipe a "pom pom" onto the top of the strawberry. Place liquorice or raisins cut in half for eyes and serve.
