Strawberries & Cream Marshmallow Sundae: a five-minute spring dessert

|

Some afternoons just ask for something sweet.

Our Strawberries & Cream Marshmallow Sundae is one of those little desserts that looks like you tried, and comes together in about five minutes. No baking, no fuss.

It starts with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a drizzle of strawberry sauce and a handful of fresh strawberries. Then comes the good part: a buttery crumble made from our S'mores Graham Crackers, and our Strawberries & Cream marshmallows resting on top.

Bright, pretty and made for slow spring afternoons.

Simple, pretty and very hard to say no to.

The Secret Crunch

Why We Use S'mores Graham Crackers

A sundae is all about contrast. Something cold, something soft, and something with a little bite.

Our S'mores Graham Crackers are the bite. Crushed into a rough crumble, they bring a buttery cinnamon warmth and a delicate crunch that plays beautifully against the cold vanilla and the soft marshmallow on top.

They are not just for s'mores. Use them for cheesecake bases, slices, sundaes and any dessert that could use a little extra magic.

The Crowning Touch

Why We Use Strawberries & Cream Marshmallows

This is the little detail that turns a bowl of ice cream into something you want to photograph.

Our Strawberries & Cream 6PC marshmallows are soft, squishy and layered with real strawberry flavour, each one finished with a sweet little strawberry on top. Resting on the sundae, they add a gentle chew and that pretty pink finish.

One box tops two generous sundaes, with a few left to nibble while you build.

Method

Scoop by Scoop

1

Make the Graham Crumble

Place 2 to 3 Cloud Theory S'mores Graham Crackers into a zip-lock bag and crush them with a rolling pin, or chop them by hand.

Keep it rough, with a few larger pieces. A little texture is part of the charm.

2

Quick Strawberry Sauce, optional

Add the strawberries, sugar, lemon juice and water to a small saucepan.

Simmer gently for 6 to 8 minutes until glossy and syrupy, mashing lightly with a fork. Set aside to cool a little.

Short on time? A good store-bought strawberry sauce is perfectly lovely.

3

Add the Ice Cream

Add two generous scoops of vanilla ice cream to your prettiest glass or bowl.

4

Drizzle the Sauce

Spoon over the strawberry sauce and let it run down the sides.

5

Scatter and Crunch

Add the fresh strawberries and a generous handful of the graham crumble.

6

Crown with Marshmallows

Finish with the Strawberries & Cream marshmallows on top.

7

Serve

Enjoy straight away, while everything is soft, cold and pretty.

Pro Tip

Make It a Sundae Bar

Having people over? Turn it into a build-your-own sundae bar.

Lay out the vanilla ice cream, a jug of strawberry sauce, a bowl of fresh strawberries, the graham crumble in a little dish, and a box or two of Strawberries & Cream marshmallows.

Then let everyone build their own. It is half the dessert, half the entertainment, and always a lovely way to gather.

🍓

Make Ahead

A sundae is best built and enjoyed right away, while everything is cold and soft.

You can prep the pieces in advance though. Keep the graham crumble in an airtight jar and the strawberry sauce in the fridge for up to five days, then build in minutes whenever the craving strikes.
