A little like a baked Alaska in a pie shell, this delight would have once been an early summer treat. With modern supermarkets, fresh berries are available year round. This recipe is also wonderful with peaches or raspberries. From the Southern chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947.
