    Like the other reviews, I found this recipe to be on the sweet side. However, I also didn't have the required Ice Cream Maker as used. When I saw a couple others made the recipe without the maker, I tried it to. It is my opinion that you'll need the maker to get the desired consistency of a good sorbet. Good luck!

    Rich and Tasty. I also use as a base for Smoothie for kids, just a scoop of sorbet, vanilla, egg and Ice. Kids love them anytime.

    Very flavorful and refreshing. Based on others' reviews about it being to sweet, I cut down sugar in the simple syrup to 1.5 cups, but still added the corn syrup at the end. I think the corn syrup helps it not crystallize in the freezer. The sweetness was perfect, and my whole family loved it. Definitely use the lime - it rounds out the flavor just right.

    I made the recipe twice. The first time it was too sweet and tart for my tastebuds so the second time I cut down the amount of sugar and eliminated the lime juice completly and it was delicious!!

    The consistency was perfect. The color was bright and beautiful. But it was too sweet! I am not sure what I would do to cut the sweetness next time. Perhaps I would cut the sugar. I'm not sue if the corn syrup helps with texture or simply makes it sweet.

    I made the sorbet according to the recipe. I poured it into a 9x13" glass baking dish since I don't have an ice cream maker. After it was frozen, I dipped it out with a ice cream scoop. Straining the strawberry puree is not necessary and takes too much time. It was not too sweet! I served it to my husband, who typically doesn't like desserts and he loved it. So did my 22 & 24 yr. old sons.

    The Sorbet had great texture, but, it was way too sweet. I would leave the corn syrup out next time. Thanks. Denise Nichols, Florida

    I MADE THIS FOR MY HUSBAND ON OUR WEDDING ANNIVERSARY AND HE WANTS ME TO MAKE IT FOR HIM WHEN EVER STRAWBERRIES ARE IN SEASON... HE PREFERS THIS TO STRAWBERRY ICE CREAM. HE EVEN WENT OUT TO BY ME AN ICE CREAM MAKER TO ENSURE THAT I HAVE NO EXCUSE NOT TO MAKE TO MAKE IT.
    I even made this for a school function and everyone of my class mates wanted the recipe.
    thank you Paula Deen for sharing this recipe with the entire world you ARE the greatest.
