A classic British dessert, fools are made with puréed fruit folded into whipped cream or custard. Fool is traditionally made with gooseberry, but any fruit such as rhubarb, lime or raspberries can be used. Like other desserts such as flummery, trifle and nonsense, fool may have got its name for being a light, frivolous dessert.
