Cranachan

Recommended by Phil's Food World and 4 other food critics.
"The creamy filling was smooth with added oats bringing a toasty taste and texture. The base was nutty and delicious, but the star was the raspberry compote, as it cut through the cream and was packed full of fruity flavour."

Recommendations

"The cranachan cheesecake was so light and fluffy, indulgently creamy and the oats gave it an unusual (but interesting) texture – every mouthful resulted in one extremely satisfied cheesecake addict."
"The cheesecake is beautifully smooth and creamy. The rich buttery biscuit base adds a nice texture and balances perfectly with the sharp, tangy, delicious raspberry compote."
"I ordered the Cranachan cheesecake which used shortbread instead of a traditional cheesecake base and was topped with some rich raspberry compote. Delish!"
"The Cranachan cheesecake was a gorgeous twist on the Scottish classic. The oat and honey base was not sweet, like a digestive cheesecake base, but truer to the original dessert. The smooth creaminess of the cheesecake was slightly flavoured with honey and served as the perfect backdrop to the Raspberry compote on top, which was simply stunning. Why the chef's don't put it in a jar and sell it separately I don't know, they'd make a fortune!"
