Dairy-free, gluten-free, soy-free, sugar-free
I've seen photos of these strawberry Santas going around a lot lately. They look really great. The only problem is that the ones I've seen are made with whipped cream and Jacob can't have dairy. So we came up with our own solution - cashew nut cream! I've posted my recipe for cashew nut cream before. It makes a great filling for strawberry Santas. You will need to add slightly less coconut milk to this recipe though to make these. The cashew nut cream needs to be a pipe-able consistency otherwise they will just collapse.
Ingredients
20 strawberries
2 quantities cashew nut cream (with slightly less coconut milk)
a handful of black chia seeds
Method
Slice off the leafy end of the strawberry so the strawberries sit flat.
Then slice off the tip to make a hat.
Put your cashew nut cream into a piping bag and pipe swirls on the top of the strawberry base. Replace hat.
Add a dollop of cashew nut cream to the top of the hat and down the Santa's front.
Add two chia seeds to each Santa for eyes (we actually used flaxseeds as we didn't have black chia seeds!)
Enjoy!
