- 600 grams strawberries
- 200 grams sugar
- 2 teaspoons orange zest, organic
- 15 centiliters heavy cream, very cold
- 4 large egg whites

Fold the bottom of the pieces into y three cm/1¼ inches sections. Join both ends and slide one side within the other to create a collar the size of your ramekin. Place them into the ramekins.
- Puree 400 grams of strawberries. Keep the best looking ones for decoration. Strain the puree in a sieve to remove the seeds. Use a whisk, and whisk the pulp through the sieve. Add the orange zest.
- Cook the sugar in 10 centiliters of water for 2 minutes until the sugar is dissolved. Beat the egg whites and slowly pour the boiling sugar syrup. Continue to whip for about 5 to 8 minutes, until the mixture is thick and cool. Slowly incorporate the strawberry puree.
- Beat the cream into a Chantilly. Delicately fold it in with the egg white mix. Pour into the molds up to 2 centimeters above the ramekin top. Place the ramekins into the freezer for a minimum of 4 hours.
- Remove the paper before serving. Slice the remaining strawberries and decorate the top of the soufflés with the slices. Top with a strawberry stem. Leave them for a minute or two at room temperature before serving.
