Autumn's perfect fruit!
Autumn brings a rich palette of flavours and ingredients that are perfect for culinary creations in patisserie, ice cream making, catering and medley. Consider the full sweetness of ripe apples and pears, which can be caramelised or processed into compotes and fillings. Pumpkins shine with their velvety texture in creams, cakes or even sorbets. Chestnuts and hazelnuts add a nutty depth to pralines, mousses and ice cream.
Forest fruits such as blackberries, elderberries and cranberries provide vibrant colours and a fresh-sour accent in coulis, jams or as a garnish. Figs and quinces, with their complex aromas, enrich pastries or shine in co-wines. Spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves enhance the autumnal warmth, ideal in spiced cider ice cream or as a twist in a classic tarte Tatin.
In the medley, autumn fruits lend themselves to artisanal meads with a fruity depth, perfect as an accompaniment to desserts. Be inspired by the abundance of the season and create dishes that capture autumn in every bite, full of flavour, fragrance and texture. Autumn is the season of culinary comfort and creativity!
