Scrape the frozen mixture with a fork to form flaky chunks, and seal and freeze for a further 2 hours. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Scrape the mixture again, then seal and freeze for 1 more hour. Scrape the mixture for a third time, then seal and freeze until you\u2019re ready to serve. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. To serve, use a fork to rough up the mixture, if necessary. Spoon into 6 tall dessert glasses or bowls. Divide the candyfloss between the glasses or bowls, then halve the reserved strawberries, nestle them on top of the candyfloss and serve immediately.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step into a slimmer summer<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.slimmingworld.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Summer-MoreForMembers.jpg\" alt=\"More for members this summer with Slimming World\" class=\"wp-image-6955\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.slimmingworld.co.uk\/nearest-group-search\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Join us in group<\/a>&nbsp;\u2013 or sign up to our digital service,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.slimmingworld.co.uk\/what-happens-online\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Slimming World Online<\/a>&nbsp;\u2013 to get your summer off to an amazing slimming start.
