I started with pocka dots that I turned into hearts which in turn dissapated and just made their own patterns in the cream.I love white peaches and I love them poached... these were done in Rose wine and sugar... I cooked them with their skins on as that is what gives them their "blush" and once they were ready I took them out of the poached liquid... to which I added more sugar and reduced right down to a syrupy goodness... this is what I used to make my spots and hearts... these were surrounded by plain old whipping cream...
The whole process takes less than 45 minutes to completion and is a lovely dessert that can be eaten hot or cold and certainly done in advance for a dinner or lunch...
I did score the peaches along their natural line which made for easier removal of the skin once their cooled a little...
It's nice to be back blogging... Vida x x x

When I went to compile my shopping list, I realised you didn't post the recipe. SO no peaches this weekend for me. Any chance of getting it posted or emailing it to me?
I was planning on doing something with peaches this weekend...not as good as yours though. Aren't peaches so good this year?
Neil, they have been great, I am a stone fruit lover and this year is making me very content!! V x
