Scoop 11 oz strawberry sorbet into pan and spread evenly end to end, side to side.

Cut another layer of Shortcake and press to set ice cream.
Fold plastic wrap over top to cover; place in freezer 4 hours to overnight.
- Italian Meringue
Add water, sugar, and corn syrup to a small sauce pot; cook to soft ball stage or 235°F-240°F. Add egg whites and lemon juice in a mixer fitted with whisk attachment while sugar mixture is cooking.
Mix on medium-high speed for approximately 5-7 minutes or until soft peaks form. (Do not whip to firm peaks.)
Remove sugar mixture from heat once sugar reaches soft ball stage.
Drizzle hot sugar down the side of the bowl while mixer is running, trying not to come in contact directly with the whip.
Turn mixer to high speed to aerate, mixing until meringue turns glossy and reaches full volume.
Stop mixer and remove whisk attachment.
- Finishing
Remove fully frozen loaf from pan and place on serving dish with plastic wrap removed.
Divide Italian Meringue in half; spread 1 part over the top, sides and ends. Gently wave hand torch over top, sides and ends to brown the meringue. Slice to serve immediately or placed back in the freezer until ready to serve.
