My post: Home-made Strawberry Topping
My son wanted to make (and eat, lol) cheesecake (the no-bake kind) but we didn't have any ready-made (in other words, CANNED) toppings. So, we made our own!
Ingredients
- Strawberries (frozen, or fresh)
- sugar, cinnamon
- vanilla, water
- butter (totally optional; I just felt like adding it)
Procedure
- Place fresh/frozen fruits in pot. Add a bit of water.
- Drizzle sugar, some ground cinnamon, vanilla, and butter.
- Simmer and mix every now and then until fruits are soft and liquid gets thick.
- Add some more water if needed.
- Remove from fire once satisfied with the consistency.
- Let cool completely before adding to your cheesecake.
- Indulge!
I think our strawberry topping needed more sugar (compared to the canned version), but I really didn't mind. I liked it. It tasted more ... real. :P

Hi Maiylah :)
We definitely thought a like, as I also make strawberry cake :)
I always frozen ones but we have now fresh strawberries so I used them
Thanks for the party and have a good weekend :)
Yummy! making your own toppings is best because you can control the sweetness :)
Sarap!!
Oh there's my soup :) Thanks for the feature, Maiylah. Cinnamon and strawberries make a fabulous combination as topping. Your creation just looks divine.
These both look delicious. I am quite partial to strawberries, so the topping is definitely one to try...
Thanks for hosting Maiylah.
Homemade definitely is the best!:)
@Winnie: i usually use canned..me being lazy. plus they are seasonal and during off season they are sooo expensive! lucky you, being in a place where strawberries are plentiful! :)
@T. Julie: so true!
