How to Turn Strawberries into Tiny Santas

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at Northeastern chapter.

Don’t be that guy who walks into the Christmas party with a sad sack of store-bought cookies. Nobody likes that guy. Be the holiday party hero who shows up squad deep with some Santa strawberries. Everyone will love you, and your posse of fresh strawberries stuffed with cream cheese frosting and styled up like the big man himself, Santa Claus.

If Baymax, Santa, and a strawberry cheesecake had 20 babies, these would be them. And you can make them in under 5 minutes with less than 5 ingredients.

Convinced? That’s what I thought.

    Place the tip of the strawberry on top and add a dollop of cream to form a little santa hat.
