If wicker basket not available use colander & next day pack into heart-shaped metal mold. Make homemade strawberry preserves with frozen strawberries, a little lemon juice & some sugar; cook so that berries are still fresh & syrup is a little runny. Guests spread cheese on bread or saltines, spoon on some preserves & top with one perfect strawberry.
