    Crumble and custard.

    But rhubarb season is behind us, we are now firmly into gooseberry season!

    Oooh yeah - Hartley's Gooseberries in a tin - the only way to eat them - FACT. Nan used to make Goosebrry pie with those Hartleys jobs - awesome childhood memory, right up there with her bread & butter pudding (and her bread pudding for that matter). Nerver liked eating them fresh for some reason.

    Rhubarb crumble with custard is quite possibly the best dessert ever invented - though apple pie with cheese is awesome as well.

    I have some growing in my garden, thrives in these cold climes - only planted it this year so will have to wait until next summer to enjoy.

    I need to know what to do with an excess of Cape Gooseberries.

    Here we go mate:

    Food Uses

    In addition to being canned whole and preserved as jam, the cape gooseberry is made into sauce, used in pies, puddings, chutneys and ice cream, and eaten fresh in fruit salads and fruit cocktails. In Colombia, the fruits are stewed with honey and eaten as dessert. The British use the husk as a handle for dipping the fruit in icing.
