  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar Add to the cream while whipping.

Method
 

Preparation

Assembly
  1. In a rectangular dish, start layering. Begin with a layer of graham crackers, followed by a layer of the whipped cream mixture, then add a layer of the mixed berries. Repeat until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of whipped cream on top.

Notes

For substitutions, other fruits like peaches or mangoes can be used. Ensure heavy cream is cold before whipping, and avoid overwhipping to prevent graininess. The cake is best enjoyed cold.
