It may be a bit early in the year, but my favorite street fruit vendor (yes, in NYC we get our fruit from a cart on the corner, not the supermarket) had some pretty good looking strawberries today and reminded me how much I love them. Like almost everyone else. I mean, really, is there a fruit more appealing than the strawberry? So, I dug around in the Martha Stewart archive (pretty handy tool) for my favorite desserts we've done—most of which I was lucky enough to taste when the test kitchen brought out their leftovers!

Now I'm getting hungry. I'm going to have to make one of the individual jam cakes or the panna cotta. Some or all of these would make a super fun dessert buffet for a summer wedding or a shower. Do you have the dessert menu set for your summer wedding?

Oooo I hope to have lots of strawberries at our summer vineyard wedding. Thank you for the inspiration!
