Admittedly I am a food snob. I like all my food made from scratch. If it came from a box I normally turn my nose up to it. There are always exceptions to any rule. This incredibly Decadent Strawberry Shortcake is that exception to my no boxes in the kitchen rule. A church member brought this to us after I delivered Caiden. It has become a yearly traditional treat around our house since then.
