Notes
These strawberry shortcake sundaes are best enjoyed immediately after assembly.If you need to prepare components ahead of time, store each element separately: keep strawberry topping refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days, cube and store pound cake at room temperature for 2 days (or freeze for longer), and keep ice cream in the freezer until ready to serve.This is delicious using the strawberries from the strawberry syrup recipe!
