Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm :-)



In the past, I have scooped out a panettone, then lined the inside with
melted chocolate, chilled it, then just on serving, fill the 'bowl' with
mascerated fresh fruit.


:-)


At the end of dessert (and it was a 3 course dessert!!) there was one
young lady who grabbed the panettone 'bowl', and used it as a giant cup,
and slurped the last of the 'juice' and fruit out :-)

(It's a summer time thing!! ;-)


Then everyone fell on the 'bowl' and had chunks of chocolate coated
fruit bread :-)
