Strawberry Clouds
Imagine big soft white clouds.
Now imagine them at the end of the day, when the setting sun gives them a lovely red tinge.
Now imagine them strawberry flavored!
Just like this dessert, they are Strawberry Clouds!
Light, airy, delicate and with just the right amount of sweetness. Perfectly balanced by the roundness of the whipped cream.
The perfect dessert for a summer dinner party, or for a Sunday brunch.
A sugar-free treat!
We all need and deserve a sweet treat sometimes!
The only problem with this fact is that sugar and carbohydrate consumption has reached a staggering proportion in the world. We consume at least 300 calories a day more from carbs ONLY compared to 40 years ago, while fat and protein consumption as stayed almost the same.
This sudden change in diet had brought dire consequences for the health of the people. Just look at the statistics for diabetes, metabolic syndrome, heart disease, etc. These are all degenerative diseases that originate in a bad diet and are preventable.
As a nutritionist, it is my duty to look out for your health. I do it for my patients and I do it for my readers!
As a cook, I incorporate my knowledge of nutrition to create delicious treats that are not bad for you.
This one is especially dear to my heart, as it came out delicious and won’t leave you feeling ill from a sugar high and sudden crash. I hope you enjoy!

Important Note On Gelatin Types
When it comes to gelatin, you don’t want any old gelatin off the supermarket shelves. You want to look for 100% grass-fed gelatin from healthy animals. Just like other animal products, quality is important.
That is why I recommend Vital Proteins Grass-Fed Gelatin products and Perfect Supplements products exclusively. I have compared these brand with other brands on the market and the quality far surpasses anything else I’ve tried. I am thrilled to be one of their affiliate partners and support such great products and companies.
Perfect Supplements offers a grass-fed hydrolyzed collagen (cold-soluble) right now and has a gelatin (hot-soluble) in the works for 2016. Read my review of their product here or watch the video below. You can order their own products via their own site here or on Amazon here.

Where do the vanilla and stevia go? Into the strawberries or into the whipped cream? Sounds delicious, can’t wait to try this.
Hi Sharmista – Thanks for pointing that out! We have updated the recipe. Sorry for missing that!
Oh wow. This looks heavenly!
Hi Jordan! Hope you enjoy! 🙂
Sounds delicious! Mine are chilling now! Have you made this with any other fruit? Thanks!
Hi Shan – We hope you enjoy! You could probably use any berry in this recipe and it would be equally as delicious! Have fun experimenting! 🙂
What is the name or brand of the gelatin you used? Where can I buy this? Thank you!
Hi Monique – I use the Great Lakes brand gelatin. It is 100% grass-fed and pastured: https://www.deliciousobsessions.com/Great-Lakes-Gelatin. You can buy it online and some health food stores will also carry it. Hope you enjoy!
Hello, could you substitute stevia for organic coconut sugar? I do paleo and don’t really know much about stevia.
Hi Kevin – You could use a sweetener of your choice in this recipe, but you would have to adjust the proportions a bit. A little bit of stevia goes a long way, as it is SUPER sweet, so you may have to add more of a sweetener. You might start off with a tablespoon and adjust from there. Hope you enjoy!
Does it matter is you use the green or red can of Great Lakes gelatin? I have the green and not sure if that will work.
Hi Jennifer – It needs to be the red can, which is true gelatin. The green can is collagen hydrolysate, which will not gel. Hope you enjoy!
That looks delicious! I’ll have to try it without stevia though. My body doesn’t like that stuff.
Hope you enjoy Deven! 🙂
Perfect timing Jessica, I’ve been looking for the perfect dessert for an upcoming girls night out valentines bunco party and was wondering if I could use frozen organic strawberries that I just stocked up on from Costco. Also, how far in advance can the cream be made to hold it’s shape? I want to do as much of the prep work in advance, so I can spend time enjoying the party. Thanks much for an excellent blog, your information is always so helpful!
Hi Jules – I have not tried it with frozen strawberries, but I think it would work. They will probably be more watery though, so maybe let them thaw and strain off some of the water? As far as the cream, I am not sure how far in advance it can be made and still hold it’s form. I would imagine maybe overnight, but I would hate to tell you that and then have it be ruined. 🙁
Great recipe idea, just wondering if frozen strawberries could be substituted for fresh? Thanks!!!
Hi Jules – Yes, I think they could. See my other response to your comment! 🙂
This recipe looks really good. I just thought it was not healthy to eat raw egg whites. Not because of salmonella as I eat raw egg yolks, but because of the avidin in raw egg whites bind to the biotin and is therefore not healthy. What is your opinion on this?
Hi Randee – I don’t worry about eating raw egg whites on occasion. This is a dessert, so it’s not something you’d be eating regularly. Consuming it as a treat once in awhile should not cause any problems unless you know that you are sensitive to raw egg whites. In that case, you’d of course need to avoid it! 🙂
Do you have any nutritional stats on this, specifically sugar and carb amounts? Any non-dairy substitutes for those of who can’t have dairy? Thanks.
Hi Kir – You could probably use coconut cream (the super thick stuff from the top of the can or Aroy-D brand coconut cream). I’ve never tried it, but I think it would work. We don’t provide nutrition info on my recipes since we feel there is much more that goes into health than counting calories, fat, etc. There are a number of sites you could use. This one seems to be one of the most popular: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/recipe/calculator. Thanks for stopping by! If you try it with the coconut cream, let me know how it turns out! 🙂
I’m new to AIP and I see that eggs are not permitted on this program until after a period of time when I can try them again to see if I tolerate them. Is there something I could substitute for the egg whites?
Hi Eva – Thanks for stopping by! You could probably play with more gelatin in this recipe, though I’ve never made it without the egg whites so I don’t have any specific instructions on how to adapt it. You could maybe just make a “jello” or thick pudding from it and then whip it with a hand or stand mixer to get it more fluffy. If you try it, let me know how it turns out!
You are making some dangerous statements here, as a Type 1 diabetic, I can assure you that not all diabetes originates in bad diet and your assumption is basic, misguided and dangerous. Oh, and it’s insulting. Also, it’s not degenerative and it isn’t a bad thing to eat carbs.
Hi Cait! Thanks for stopping by! The author of this article (my friend Vivica) was specifically talking about Type 2, which is largely preventable through lifestyle changes. Type 1 is definitely not being included here. I apologize if that didn’t seem clear to you. Of course eating carbs is not bad when they are coming from healthy sources. They are, however, bad when they are coming from largely refined and highly processed sources. This goal of Vivica’s article, and this site, is to help people transition away from the Standard American Diet and incorporate more real food into their life. Too many poor quality carbs absolutely impacts our health. Cheers!
Can you please confirm if the 2 x TABLEspoons vanilla in this recipe is correct.
Thanks for the lovely recipe
Regards
Rina
Hi Rina! Oh no! That is totally wrong. It should be 2 teaspoons. I don’t know how many times I’ve looked at this recipe and my eyes have never noticed the error. Thank you so much for finally pointing it out!
