Tips

  • For an adult dessert, serve with a lemon liqueur sauce. Heat 4 tbsp. of each lemon liqueur and caster sugar in a small pan heating gently until sugar is dissolved. Bring to a boil, add 3 strips of shredded pared lemon rind and simmer2-3 minutes until reduced and syrupy. Cool 10 minutes and stir in and additional 1 tbsp. lemon liqueur. Serve sauce drizzled over dessert.
  • Try replacing the blueberries with fresh raspberries. Instead of the whipped cream try a dollop of crème fraîche, Greek yogurt or mascarpone cheese.
