Once cool, pour over the fruits and leave to rest for at least an hour. Now make the brandy snap cups. Preheat oven to 190ºC. Line a large baking sheet with greaseproof paper.

Remove from the oven and when cool enough to handle, scoop each biscuit up with a knife and lightly press inside a small cup to shape, remove and place on a cooling rack, repeat for each brandy snap cup. To serve, place a brandy snap cup on a plate, fill with fruit, add a scoop of Kelly’s of Cornwall Clotted Cream and Strawberry Ice Cream and spoon over a little juice. Decorate with fresh mint leaves.
