Candied Morello Cherries
French Candied Cherries for Baking & More
These plump, perfectly soft candied sour cherries are good enough to eat like, well, candy! They have naturally dark color and deep flavor that brings to mind warm mulling spices. Use them year-round in scones, ice cream and chocolate tortes, or bake them into holiday sweets like fruitcake or the rich Italian Christmas bread, panettone. Although they are not swimming in syrup like many cocktail cherries, these sticky little Morellos would shine in a Manhattan or Champagne cocktail.
