You don't have to tell me there are those that will not promote using sugar (on strawberries).
But for those that DO, do you prefer Granulated or Powdered?
Sprinkled or used to dip into?
My 6 yo prefers granulated. I just like it that she asks for it with proper pronunciation. (not as good as my other who when 4 would say Pachycephalosaurusand such)

Granulated. Powdered sugar cakes up on the strawberries too much for my taste. The edges and corners of the granulated sugar crystals also seem to cut into the flesh of the strawberries some and cause them to release more juice when chewing.

Brown sugar. First dip strawberry in sour cream, then dab in a bowl of brown sugar. Ooh baby!

I preferred chocolate and whipped cream for dipping.

I like granulated so you get that little bit of crunchiness. I also like granulated sugar sprinkled on top of buttered english muffins too. Yummo.

A little slight whipped cream is all you need. If you need to add sugar, then your strawberries can't be very ripe.
