Tastes like summer! This recipe is fantastic, didn't change a thing, everyone at my dinner party loved it.., I did want to let everyone know if you are using fresh berries, brush an egg wash onto the pie crust before you bake it in the oven, it helps create a barrier as sometimes fresh berries are watery and can make the crust a little soggy. My crust wasn't soggy at all, thanks Judy!

This was so refreshing, light and tasty! I followed the directions exactly, but used a Graham crumb crust as that is what I had in the freezer. The measurements were perfect for the glace and whipped cream. Not too sweet. I think next time I will 1.5 or double the glace mix because I used a larger crust although it covered all the fresh berries, I would have liked more of it. I also used whole berries point up. This is definitely a keeper. So very quick and easy to make and it is guaranteed to be a hit! I did photograph it, but haven't uploaded them yet.
