I was reading the recipe for "faux fruit tarts", and I remembered this one I used to make a few years ago. I haven't made it in a while b/c if I keep graham crackers in the house I will eat the whole box!! :P Not really, but these are tasty and you can make 'em as healthy as you want.

I made this White Chocolate Berry Cheesecake for a barbecue last year. It really wasn't that hard to make and was so delicious that people kept asking me where I bought it! Here is the recipe.

From Wikipedia:
The Strawberry Shortcake line of characters each had their own fruity or dessert-themed name with clothing to match, and they each had a dessert- or fruit-named pet. Like the Strawberry Shortcake doll, all the other characters' dolls had hair scented to match their dessert theme. The characters lived and played in a magical world known as Strawberryland.

♥ Fresh finds
Top your cake with fresh fruit or flowers. Sugar-icing and marzipan decorations are labor-intensive and costly. Think lightweight fruits that won't sink into the cake, such as cherries, strawberries or small bunches of sugared grapes.
