Method

  1. Place half of the amaretti biscuits in the bottom of four sundae or wine glasses.
  2. Reserving a few strawberry slices, 8 blueberries and 4 raspberries for decoration, divide the strawberries between the glasses. Add a quarter of the blueberries to each glass and then top with the raspberries, equally divided. Sprinkle most of the remaining biscotti over the raspberries.
  3. Mix together the custard and crème fraîche and pour the mixture over the fruit and amaretti. Chill until required and then decorate with the remaining strawberry slices, blueberries, raspberries and biscotti before serving.
