Variations & Tips
For a tropical twist, substitute the mixed berries with diced pineapple, mango, and coconut flakes. You can also add a teaspoon of lemon zest for a refreshing citrus note. If you prefer a lower sugar option, replace the powdered sugar with a natural sweetener like honey or agave syrup. For those with dietary restrictions, using a dairy-free cream cheese and coconut cream in place of heavy whipping cream makes for a delightful vegan alternative.
