Interpret in Freemarker

I'm a little new to freemarker (I'm a PHP guy really!)

I'm trying to evaluate a variable value as Freemarker, for example:

variable offers contains:

<#list blahs as blah> <#if blah> <p>${blah.foo}</p> </#if> </#list>

And then evaluate the above variable in Freemarker, so like below:

<#assign textWithFreemarker = r"${offers}"/>
<#assign evaluatedFreemarker = textWithFreemarker?interpret />  

            <h1>${evaluatedFreemarker}</h1>

It gives me a template error: 

content: Expected a string or something automatically convertible to string (number, date or boolean), but this evaluated to a transform.

Do I have to convert the type first?

Any help is much appreciated.

If you need to interpret offers as FTL to generate output inside that h1 element, you just need to write:

<h1><@offers?interpret /></h1>
