Berries on a Leaf with Rose Petal Cream

1 Fragrant red rose
300 ml Double cream
1 tb Caster sugar
1/2 Lemon; pips removed
Good handful rose leaves; (for decoration only)
1 kg Mixed summer berries; such as strawberries, raspberries, blueberries,
redcurrants, blackberries and loganberries

Separate the rose petals and place them in a processor. Add half the cream, the sugar and a squeeze of lemon juice. Whizz for 10 seconds or so until just blended.

Scoop the rose petal mix into a bowl, add the remaining cream and whisk with an electric beater until forming soft peaks. Spoon into a serving bowl set on a large white plate or small platter.

Take the serving plate and decorate with rose leaves, right out to the edge. Carefully pile up small mounds of the different types of the berries as high as you can. Serve at once.
