Dessert
English

Fool is a traditional English dessert dating back to the 16th century. This creamy and fruity dish consists of pureed fruit, typically berries, mixed with sugar and folded into whipped cream. The name "fool" is believed to have originated from the French word "fouler," meaning to crush or press. This delightful treat is often served in elegant glassware, showcasing its vibrant layers of fruit and cream. The best version of this dish can be found in the English countryside, where fresh, seasonal berries are abundant. To make a standout fool, it's crucial to use ripe, juicy fruit and perfectly whipped cream for a luscious texture.
