To maintain their soft texture and prevent hardening, store the finished Christmas Strawberries in an airtight container until ready to serve. (variable)
For a smoother texture, ensure the gelatin is fully dissolved when mixing with the condensed milk.
If the mixture is too sticky to handle, try chilling it for a longer period.
Experiment with different colored sugars for a variety of festive looks.
Consider using natural food coloring for a more natural and vibrant hue.
Finely chopped pistachios can be used instead of green sugar to create the ‘leaves’ for a more authentic look.
These strawberries are best enjoyed within a few days of making them.

Feb 3, 2025Be careful not to make them too far in advance, they can get a little sticky if stored for too long.
