About

Cranachan is a traditional Scottish dessert that is both simple and elegant. It's made from a mixture of whipped cream, honey, and whisky, to which toasted oats and fresh raspberries are added. The oats provide a pleasant crunch that contrasts the creaminess of the mixture, while the whisky adds a warming, malty depth. Honey sweetens the dish and enhances the natural flavours. Raspberries provide a tart and fruity element that cuts through the richness. This dessert is typically layered in a glass to create a visually appealing presentation. Cranachan is often served during celebrations like Burns Night and is considered a perfect summer dessert because of its fresh and light taste. The dessert is quick to prepare making it ideal for last-minute gatherings.
