I’m kicking off #SCBP Recipes with a delicious, mouthwatering Strawberry and Orange Trifle. Perthshire offers some fantastic fruit picking farms and this week I drove my boys out to Mains of Errol to pick up some strawberries from Jamie Arnot's Get Fruity Team.
I absolutely love strawberries. Nothing says summer more to me than the sweet taste of a Perthshire Berry. In my early childhood years, I'd spend summer days with my folks strawberry picking at our local farm. Fruit picking is a whole lot of hard work but so much fun and at the end of the day we’d pack the car, baskets, brimming full of fresh fruit, and head home to prepare lovely summer desserts.
This dessert is so simple to make and its a great choice if you don’t have a lot of time. After our wee drive to collect the strawberries, I made it with my boys and was given a huge thumbs up.
Welcome and enjoy!

Toss together the strawberries, oranges, juice and sugar and leave to stand
Who doesn't love strawberries? (If your hand is up go and sit in the corner!). Gill's recipe is a stroke of simple genius and essential summer munching for us lucky Perthshire people. There are so many great fruit farms spread across the county that choosing local and indulging in a little #PerthLoveFest is as easy as... well, making jam!
For you perfectionists / fancy pants people, you can use whole oranges, peeled and sliced into segments (why not check out Provender Brown's Fruit Boxes?). And of course, homemade shortbread will make this recipe Dinner Party ready in no time at all.
Health nuts can ditch the sugar and swap the cream for natural yoghurt. (But you MUST keep the shortbread otherwise its just breakfast).
If you do make this at home then PLEASE post your photographs on facebook or tweet out to us. Remember to use the tag and spread the love - #PerthLoveFest.
We've chosen Mains of Errol because Nicki loves Jamie so much - why not leave us a comment and let us know where you pick up your favourite Perthshire berries?
