Mother’s Day May

White Chocolate Strawberry Shortcake Sundae

Some years we celebrate Mother’s Day May with a special sundae, served in a Merla-Mae cup and built in layers:

  • Angel cake
  • Vanilla soft-serve on top
  • Homemade white chocolate ganache
  • Strawberries
  • Finished with whipped cream

Our everyday menu has a close cousin: the Strawberry Shortcake Sundae, one of our Signature Sundaes, with angel cake, strawberries and white chocolate sauce. Follow @merlamae on Instagram for this year’s Mother’s Day specials.
