Make the Most of This Recipe
Did You Know...
Raspberries are made up of many connected parts, called drupelets, each of which has its own seed. We’re most familiar with red raspberries, but this sweet-tart fruit also comes in shades of black and gold.
Purchasing
The heavier, the better. Heavy whipping cream, with a milk-fat content between 36 and 40 percent, whips up faster than light whipping cream, which has a milk-fat content of about 30 percent.
Special Touch
A sprinkling of powdered sugar on dark plates or dusting of baking cocoa on a white platter adds an impressive finishing touch to this elegant dessert.
