Method
- Set aside 50g blueberries and add the rest to a saucepan with the sugar and 1 tsp water. Cook over a high heat for 5 mins, shaking the pan occasionally or until juicy. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 5 mins more until syrupy and reduced. Gently stir through 1 tsp lemon juice, then set aside to cool (it will thicken as it cools).
- Meanwhile, divide the cake cubes between glasses. Whip the cream to soft peaks.
- Spoon the cooled blueberry compote over the cake, then divide the custard between the glasses; spoon over the lemon curd.
- Top with the whipped cream, then scatter with the reserved fresh blueberries, lemon zest and toasted flaked almonds, if using. For maximum flavour chill for 2 hrs before eating, but they can be eaten straightaway.
