Make Christmas Dessert Extra Special with Our Boozy Fruits
There’s something rather special about a Christmas dessert with a little extra indulgence…
And our Boozy Fruits are just the thing to turn a favourite festive pudding into something truly memorable.
Carefully prepared fruits, soaked in delicious spirits and packed with flavour, they’re an effortless way to add a touch of grown-up luxury to your Christmas table. Whether you’re creating a spectacular dessert for guests or simply treating yourself after Christmas dinner, a spoonful or two can make all the difference.
Black Forest Gâteau – made even more indulgent
Chocolate and cherries are a match made in heaven, so it’s no surprise that our Cherries with Kirsch are perfect alongside a classic Black Forest Gâteau.
Layer rich chocolate sponge with clouds of whipped cream and spoon over those delicious, kirsch-soaked cherries. Add a little of the syrup for extra moisture and flavour, then finish with chocolate shavings.
It’s the Black Forest Gâteau you know and love – with an extra festive flourish.
Take your Christmas trifle to the next level
A traditional trifle is already a Christmas favourite, but adding boozy fruit takes it somewhere rather special.
Try layering sponge, custard, cream and fruit, then add our boozy fruits for little bursts of rich, fruity flavour throughout. Rumtopf is particularly delicious in a festive trifle, bringing a warming, boozy note that works beautifully with creamy custard and whipped cream.
Finish with grated dark chocolate and perhaps a few extra fruits on top for a dessert that looks every bit as good as it tastes.
Think beyond cherries…
Our Pears with Calvados bring a wonderfully sophisticated twist to festive desserts, while Figs with Cognac are rich, luxurious and beautifully suited to Christmas.
Try them:
Christmas pudding: Spoon the boozy fruit over a warm slice of Christmas pudding, with cream, custard or vanilla ice cream.
Cheeseboard: Add a small bowl to a festive cheeseboard for a lovely sweet-and-savoury contrast, particularly with rich or creamy cheeses.
Whipped cream or mascarpone: Gently fold the fruit and a little of its syrup through whipped cream or mascarpone for an effortless festive dessert.
Christmas breakfast: Spoon generously over warm pancakes, waffles or French toast, adding cream or mascarpone for an especially indulgent Christmas breakfast.
And if you’re looking for the easiest possible Christmas dessert? Warm a delicious pudding, add a generous spoonful of boozy fruit and serve with cream, custard or ice cream.
No complicated recipe required. Just good pudding + boozy fruit = Christmas heaven.
Don’t forget the chocolate!
Our boozy fruits are particularly good with chocolate. In fact, we’ve already featured warm chocolate brownies topped with ice cream and Rumtopf Boozy Fruits as one of our favourite festive combinations.
The contrast between rich, fudgy chocolate, cold creamy ice cream and juicy, boozy fruit is pretty hard to resist.
A little jar of Christmas magic
Whether you’re dressing up a traditional Christmas pudding, creating a show-stopping trifle or simply looking for something special to spoon over dessert, Boozy Fruits are one of those little additions that can make a big difference.
They’re also a lovely gift for food lovers – particularly anyone who appreciates a little indulgence at Christmas.
So this Christmas, don’t just serve dessert…
Give it a boozy twist.
