Bring to boiling point.  Let boil one minute stirring constantly.  Remove from heat.  Add to berry sugar mixture and stir for 2 minutes.  Pour into freezer containers.  Let stand 24 to 48 hours at room temperature.  Store in freezer.

** My grandma would mash all strawberries by hand, I use a food processer and it works just fine. 

** I also always let them sit for 48 hours and do not touch them for that time.  (leave the lid off until at least 24 hours
