Mixed Berry Shortcake Pie:
For the sweet-tooth, we have the sweet finale, and our Mixed Berry Shortcake Pie. Bursting with the fresh flavours of strawberries, blueberries, and rhubarb, this dessert pie is a delightful treat. The buttery shortcake base provides the perfect canvas for the juicy berries, while a dusting of icing sugar adds a touch of sweetness. Whether served warm with a dollop of whipped cream or enjoyed on its own – the choice is yours!
