Chubby Cherub

Angel Food Cake, Hold the Fork · Fluffy Almond-Vanilla

The pour

A plump little angel with a sweet tooth, the Chubby Cherub transforms airy angel food cake into a cloud-like coupe. Amaretto brings the nutty almond sponge, while Licor 43 layers in vanilla-citrus warmth like a golden halo. Heavy cream whips it all into ethereal fluff, brightened by lemon’s zesty lift and a dollop of strawberry preserves for jammy berry bursts. Shaken to silky perfection and double-strained, it’s garnished with fresh strawberries and blueberries—playful pops of color on a heavenly canvas. Light as a feather, indulgent as forbidden fruit, this dessert sip will have you floating on cloud nine.
