🍴 How to Make It (Step-by-step)

Step 1: Wash and hull the strawberries. Slice a few for decoration, and purΓ©e the rest in a blender.
πŸ’‘ Use very ripe strawberries for maximum sweetness and flavour β€” underripe berries will make it bland.

Step 2: In a chilled mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form using a stand or hand mixer.
πŸ’‘ Make sure the cream is very cold β€” this helps it whip faster and stay fluffy longer.

Step 3: Gently fold the condensed milk into the whipped cream with a silicone spatula.
πŸ’‘ Fold, don’t stir β€” we want to keep the mixture airy and light.

Step 4: Add the strawberry purΓ©e and fold gently until just combined.
πŸ’‘ Overmixing can deflate the whipped cream β€” a few pink swirls are totally fine!

Step 5: Line your loaf pan with plastic wrap. Arrange sliced strawberries along the bottom and sides for a pretty finish.
πŸ’‘ Press the strawberries gently into the sides so they freeze in place and look beautiful when sliced.

Step 6: Pour in the cream mixture. Smooth the top, cover, and freeze for at least 4–5 hours or overnight.
πŸ’‘ For a showstopping look, line the bottom and sides with strawberry slices before pouring in the mix.

Step 7: To serve, dip the pan in hot water for 30 seconds, then invert onto a plate and remove the plastic wrap. Slice and enjoy!
