This delightful plum (or apple) dessert will bring a touch of elegance to your table. Tender fruit simmered in sugar paired with cubes of Madeira cake and a drizzle of double cream, all topped with a sprinkle of flaked almonds or pistachios and a dusting of icing sugar. It's a treat that's as pleasing to the eyes as it is to the taste buds.
