Salted Caramel Vacherin

This recipe for Salted Caramel Vacherin is fabulous to prepare well in advance…so no last minute rushing about!

Vacherin is a sublime combination of meringue and Salted Caramel ice cream with the bursting hit of Salted Caramel Flavour Pearls. It’s a super versatile recipe too. Change the ice cream flavour to whatever suits you, go fruity with some passion fruit or raspberry. Fold through some fresh fruit or a swirl of coulis. Go for a sorbet instead of ice cream for a dairy free dessert. I’m fond of a Christmassy twist – squish some fruit cake or pudding into some vanilla ice cream and finish with Spiced Cranberry Flavour Pearls – available October 1st) Even pare it right back and just serve a scoop of ice cream on top of your meringue nest with some Flavour Pearls. Stash them in the freezer ready to go days before your event. Winning!

Pork rillettes are an absolute delight to eat. Salty, fatty, porky deliciousness that just calls for a glass of wine and some great conversation.

It’s a simple recipe to prepare, you just need to get it started a couple of days before your event. Another wonderful thing about rillettes is that they keep really well so make a larger batch and you can have your fridge stocked with a stash for whenever wine-o-clock strikes.

We have garnished our dish with Blackcurrant Flavour Pearls but Pepperberry & Cherry would be delightful too.
