SHORTCAKE AND GLAZE: Slide 4 berries on each skewer. Mix together sugar and lemon juice in small bowl.
Grill cake slices using tongs until grill marks appear, about 1 minute.
Grill the berries, flipping once, until grill marks appear, about 3 minutes.
Transfer berries to cutting board and slice in half.
Coat the berries with the sugar/lemon glaze by brushing it on.
Build the sandwiches by putting lemon cream on one side of the cake, followed by 4 berry halves. Add another layer of cream and top with remaining cake slice.
Notes
*****You can change up the fruit. Just have to be sure fruit is big enough to grill.
