Very Berry Cherry Sundaes – with a Fresh Cherry Compote
It’s time for ice cream again! We spotted some lovely cherries on offer this week and in my book there’s nothing better or easier than making a batch of sweet cherry compote ready to spoon over some ice cream on a sunny day. You can also use the cherry compote to serve with plain yoghurt for breakfast. If you don’t like whole cherry pieces, you could blitz the compote down into a puree, too. I used strawberry ice cream, making our ice cream sundaes super fruity! If you wanted to go all out and make your own ice cream, you could stir your cherry compote through some vanilla ice cream to make a cherry ripple type of thing.

I’m sending these Very Berry Cherry Sundaes over to Kavey for her Bloggers Scream for Ice Cream June blog event – the theme is fruit!
And also to Laura who is looking after Simple and in Season this month over at How to Cook Good Food as British cherries are just coming into season! Thank you Laura.
I tried it and it tastes so good and it is really easy to prepare. Thanks a lot.
I adore cherries, and love how versatile your simple compote can be. Delicious!
Thank you Kavey, hope its ok for your blog event. Next time will try and make my own ice cream again, too 🙂
This looks so beautiful, I love it Ren! This is such a good time of year for fruits and cherries are one of my favourites. Compotes are are great idea as they are so versatile and keep well in the fridge. I may have this with some chocolate ice cream I think and a blob of cream!
Thanks for entering into Simple and in Season and thanks for letting me host this month. it has been brilliant :)x
Thank you Laura, keeping an eye out for more cherries, I love them. Mnnnn chocolate and cherry is a fab combo, must try this compote with a lovely rich chocolate ice scream next 🙂
