wow, the short cake's are very blah!!! I even added lemon zest!!!!
the berries are good ...you just added sugar to nature! I feel like I wasted my time and ingredients especially my blueberries!!! Trying to think how I can save this...this is what I did..I added a little of the cream to a little of the strawberries and sprinkled the star short cakes with powdered sugar then spooned on a dollop of the cream mixture onto each star then topped with a blueberry. I 'm saving the rest of the strawberries in case someone want's to put more on their own dish. They look cute...but not sure the taste is going to be a hit! The cream and strawberry mixture is very good! I didn't not use cherries sorry forgot to mention that...I used strawberries alone and put the blueberries in the short cake's. So instead of the two berry mixture I only have strawberries.
