I agree about edible favors. I'm thinking of giving out macarons for DD's birthday favors. They have different flavor, so you could do strawberry shortcake ones?
My Midwestern roots may be showing but I love this strawberry fruit dip where you combine a package of strawberry cream cheese, a jar of marshmallow fluff (lol, I know) and a 1/4 tsp of almond extract. Serve with apples, pears and any other dippable fruit.
For something more labor intensive, Martha Stewart strawberry cupcakes are great.
A strawberry theme makes me think of lighter foods. You can basically just go raid Costco & come home with everything already made! Pinwheel sandwiches, a fruit tray, a veggie tray, a spinach/strawberry salad, and a Costco cake (which I think strawberry filling is an option!) Done! I add thyme to my strawberry lemonade. It's fantastic!
I'm guessing you won't, but if you're having a fire, you can dip strawberries in marshmallow fluff and cook them over the fire. A fun, different treat.
