Really good strawbs don't need the Splenda.  I'm eating some right now, all
naked.  Yum.  But if you must macerate, consider fruit juice or even a dash
of that Italian syrup they use for flavoring coffees or sodas.

Yeah, that Ricotta Crème has its roots in Sent Sovi's "Menyar D'Angels" if
you think about it.

Maybe try a little orange flower or rose water instead of vanilla?  Just a
thought.
