Strawberry Cloud Dessert is an easy no-bake summer dessert that is light and fresh and as fluffly as a cloud.
I love fruity desserts in the summertime. Hot weather has me shying away from rich, heavy chocolate desserts (gasp–I know!) and craving light and fresh treats instead. Do you feel the same way?
This Strawberry Cloud Dessert is named appropriately… it’s so fluffy and light that it really is like eating a cloud. The strawberries add a bit of tart brightness and the chocolate graham cracker crust is the perfect base to the fluffy marshmallow and cream layer. YUM! It really is so good and so easy to make too!
Enjoy this short, fun video showing how easily this yummy dessert comes together.

You could whip your own heavy cream.

Hi. I hope you’re still checking this and have time to reply. In step 2, you write, “Cool mixture.” Do you mean to cook completely to room temperature? Cool in the refrigerator? Or just give it a few minutes off the burner?
Thank you for your help!
Jennifer says
Cool to room temperature.

Would these measurements fit a store bought graham cracker crust?

You may have a bit extra unless you buy one of the deeper store-bought crusts.

Can I use skimmed milk for the strawberry cloud?

Yes, I think that would work fine.

can I make this in cupcake form
Jennifer says
Yes, I think that would work, although the finished dessert is not super firm so the cupcakes may fall apart.

Does this set firm?
Jennifer says
Pretty firm, although it is very fluffy so it’s not as firm as cheesecake.
Sherry Wright says
Have you experimented using marshmallow fluff instead of regular marshmallows?
Jennifer says
I haven’t. It works so well as is that I’ve never felt the need to experiment.
