Boodle's Club in London's St. James's Street, was founded in 1764 and this luscious fool has been a speciality on the menu for many years. It is a little like a trifle, with a sponge cake base which sops up the creamy, fruit-flavoured mixture on top.

I'm not a big fan of orange desserts, but this orange fool was surprisingly good. The orange flavor was subtle and not overpowering.
