A tin of Del Monte Fruit Cocktail is a handy store cupboard staple, ready for whenever a quick pudding is needed. Many households keep one to hand, dipping into it for a fast dessert after a midweek dinner or as an easy addition to a packed lunch. Inside the tin is a mix of fruit pieces in syrup, ready to eat straight from the can or served chilled. The soft texture and sweet syrup make it simple to spoon over ice cream, stir through yoghurt, or layer into a trifle. It also works well tipped into a fruit salad bowl alongside fresh fruit, or folded into a sponge mixture for a quick tinned fruit cake. Once opened, tip any unused fruit and syrup into a separate container and keep it in the fridge, using it within a couple of days. Drain the fruit first if adding it to a cake batter or crumble topping, so the mixture doesn't turn too wet. For a simple family pudding, drain the fruit cocktail and serve it in bowls with a splash of the syrup and a spoonful of custard or cream. Keep an unopened tin in the cupboard for whenever a fuss-free dessert is needed, whether that's a Sunday lunch finish or a quick treat for the children after school.
