Tips:

Choose fresh ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly affect the taste of your seafoam salad dessert. Use fresh, ripe berries and cold, creamy heavy cream.
Whip the cream until stiff peaks form: This will help to incorporate air into the cream, making it light and fluffy.
Add the berries and marshmallow creme gradually: This will help to prevent the cream from curdling.
Chill the salad before serving: This will help to set the cream and make it easier to slice.
Garnish with additional berries or whipped cream: This will add a touch of elegance and make your dessert more appealing.
Serve immediately: Seafoam salad is best enjoyed fresh, so serve it as soon as possible after making it.
