Custard
Heat the milk and heavy cream in a saucepan over medium heat and bring almost to a boil. Remove from the heat.

Stir in the Sherry. Place plastic wrap directly on the custard and refrigerate for about 30 minutes until cold.

Beat the heavy milk in the bowl of an electric mixer for a few minutes.
Add the Brandy and continue to whip until stiff.
Separately, beat the egg whites until reaching soft peak.
Fold in beaten egg whites into the whipped cream.

Thickly slice strawberries and set aside with the rest of the berries.
Mix toasted almonds and crushed Gavottes in a bowl.
Add the zest of 1 lemon to the almond mixture.
