For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of blackberry liqueur to the macerated berries. If fresh blackberries are unavailable, frozen berries can be used. Thaw them completely and drain any excess liquid before macerating. The fool can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Garnish just before serving to maintain freshness. To prevent the whipped cream from deflating, ensure all your equipment (bowl and beaters) are thoroughly chilled before whipping.
