Delicious! I made this today to serve over a store-bought angelfood cake. I served pieces of the cake topped with the sauce, whipped cream and a few sliced strawberries that I had reserved. My family was in awe. And all over what started as a store-bought angelfood cake!

This is a lovely strawberry sauce that is not too sweet. It is very simple to put together and the proportion of berries to sugar is right on. I used frozen berries and once they had almost fully thawed but still held their shape I chopped them in the food processor. I served this with Tartufo-recipe 10697. Thanks for the recipe.
