Blackberry and Strawberry Sundaes

By: Lucy Waverman

Sundaes are a real treat in the summer. Outrageous combinations of fresh fruit, ice cream and interesting sauces make delectable sundaes that look spectacular. Use your favourite mint chocolate bar for the chocolate sauce but make sure it is dark chocolate. Milk chocolate makes too sweet a sauce. Use these sundaes as a guide to come up with your own combinations.

Strawberry Syrup
1 cup (250 mL) strawberries
½ cup (125 mL) redcurrant jelly
1 tbsp (15 mL) Grand Marnier or other orange liqueur
