  Over 90% of Canada's raspberies come from B.C.s Fraser Valley.  Berry 
  lovers wait in anticipation until the month of July when the first 
  succulent berries make their appearance. 
   
  Bake patty shells in 450 F oven for 25 minutes.  Cool.  Whip egg whites 
  until foamy.  Gradually beat in sugar and continue beating until stiff 
  meringue forms.  Beat in vanilla.  Place patty shells on baking sheet. 
  Spoon raspberries into bottom of patty shells; top with scoop of ice cream. 
  Spread meringue over, sealing well all around and mounding at top. Bake in 
  450 F oven about 3 minutes until lightly browned.  Serve immediately. Makes 
  4 servings.
