    Slice your strawberries and place them in a bowl. Stir in a bit of honey, making your strawberry filling as sweet as you like. Once evenly mixed, set your strawberries aside.

Add more strawberries and them more ice cream or yogurt, continuing your layers until you fill the glass. Make sure that you save a few strawberries for garnish.

  4. Step 4

    Add a dollop of your handmade whip cream to the top of your strawberry parfaits. Add a strawberry or two, serve and enjoy.
