Cherry Angel Pie

Cherry Angel Pie with a layer of vanilla pastry cream, a layer of sour cherries and pink flowers on top.

This brilliant cherry angel pie looks complicated, but it’s really quite simple. Make some basic components (meringue pie crust, pastry cream and cherry sauce!) then top with whipped cream and flowers for an impressive dessert! I dusted the angel pie crust with plum powder from SOS Chefs for a fun pink punch.
