Cherry recipes

A magnificent British trifle inspired by the Black Forest flavours of cherry, dark chocolate and cream. Layers of dark chocolate sponge soaked in kirsch syrup, plump cherries in their own syrup, rich chocolate custard and softly whipped cream are stacked in a glass bowl and finished with chocolate shavings. This is pure indulgent celebration.

Plump British cherries are nestled into a rich, buttery almond frangipane inside a crisp shortcrust shell, creating a tart of extraordinary depth and fragrance. As it bakes, the cherries burst slightly, releasing their juice into the almond cream and creating pockets of jammy intensity. This is a classic summer showstopper that needs nothing more than a little cream alongside.
