berry fool

Creamy fruit pudding

A berry fool is a traditional British dessert made by folding crushed or puréed berries into whipped cream or custard.

The result is a soft, loose mixture—not set like a mousse.

Gooseberry fool is the classic version, though strawberry and raspberry are common: We finished the meal with a simple raspberry fool.
