Sweets

Three layers built on a boxed white mix with gelatin and chopped berries folded through, under a cream-cheese frosting made with well-drained strawberries.

A graham crust pressed up the sides, a plain cream-cheese filling lifted with vanilla, lemon extract and zest, and a long slow bake at a low oven.

A cobbler with a bottom crust as well as a top one — shortening pastry, blackberries thickened with cornstarch, and a woven lattice over it.
