Alexis deBoschnek demonstrates how to make strawberry floating islands using a beautifully simple vintage recipe that can adapt to almost any fresh fruit. This dessert from the 1963 edition of the Better Homes & Gardens Cookbook takes the flavors you love from strawberry shortcake and transforms them into a quick and easy eye-catching dessert. Alexis makes that classic recipe, and then she tries to best it with a luscious layered fruit pavlova of her own design. Which one will take the cake?
