4 teaspoons baking powder
2 large eggs
1 ½ cups whole milk
6 tablespoons salted butter, melted

Combine the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk the wet ingredients together.
Combine the wet and dry mixes and whisk till well blended.
Pour batter into the iron and cook until golden brown. Keep the waffle warm in a 300-degree oven. Repeat with remaining batter.
Assemble the waffles on a serving platter.
Spoon whatever you are using for the base layer. I used chantilly cream.
Spread the blueberry jam over the base layer of the top-left waffle.
Spread a layer of strawberry jam over the other three waffles.
Place blueberries in a single layer over the blueberry jam.
If desired, top each blueberry with a star sprinkle.
Layer a line of sliced strawberries across the waffles.
Using the whipped cream spray, spray a line across the waffles.
Alternate lines of sliced strawberries and whipped cream, starting and ending with strawberries.
Serve immediately.
