During those couple of weeks of Summer when cherries are in abundance and cheap at the market, it's worth buying several kilos - not only can you make yummy puddings and cakes but you can preserve them for the winter by freezing them or making  compote, jam & ice-cream from them.  If you put a few bags of cherries aside in the freezer for later use, you can make delicious desserts for Christmas or Valentine's day or just as a special treat. This cherry fool is a perfect example - it's ready in 15 minutes and absolutely delicious! Add some liqueur and you'll have yourself a special, celebratory pudding!
