My rhubarb jam fool with strawberries and cream with crunchy honeycomb is perfect for Spring.
This British cuisine inspired dessert (or breakfast) is just delish and can be prepared in advance making it perfect to serve when you ve family or friends over.
I made the rhubarb jam a few days ago ( check out my highlights on IG) and made the honeycomb in advance as well. All I need to do to serve is whip the cream and slice the strawberries.
TIPS & SWAPS:
Flavour the cream with elderflower, rose or orange blossom waters for extra floral touches.
Replace the honeycomb with small diced fresh rhubarb for extra crunch.
Swap the rhubarb jam for strawberry jam.
