I realize how silly it is to call this a recipe, but if you're like me and had never considered dressing up a store-bought cake, huzzah! Let's call it an insider's tip. Happy Summer!

Makes: 12 servings
Ingredients
  • Assorted fresh, seasonal fruit (washed and dried)
  • Ready-made Ice Cream Cake (we chose a Jon Donaire® Strawberries & Cream Ice Cream Cake, but any flavor that complements your fruit toppings will do!)
Instructions
  1. Ready for this? Immediately before serving, top ice cream cake with fruit, clustering like fruits together for an organic, bountiful effect. (Remove any larger fruits, like whole strawberries, before re-freezing leftovers as they can be challenging to slice through once frozen solid.) For easy, clean slicing, a hot knife is your BFF. Enjoy!
Notes
Obvi I love the striking effect of the fruit-topped cake, but we just as easily dressed up a Peanut Butter Cup cake with heaps of even more peanut butter cups and fresh raspberries, which I can never resist alongside chocolate or PB (think of a PB+J with chocolate!). Experiment and have fun!
