This is so good and just as yummy if you use strawberries instead of the raspberries. East to do and so pretty on the plate.

This dessert was heavenly! So easy to make and it tasted wonderful! I used a combination of fresh and frozen raspberries and blueberries which made a wonderful presentation! I would make this again and again.
