Our Marinated Figs with Grand Marnier® are really something special
Indulge in the exquisite flavors of our wild figs, marinated to perfection in the rich, citrusy sweet-tangyness of Grand Marnier® liqueur. These exotic beauties are carefully selected and sun-dried to preserve their natural sweetness and chewy, meaty texture.
The figs are soaked in a delectable syrup made with Grand Marnier®, brown sugar, cinnamon, star anise, and citrus rind, creating an amazing blend of flavours. The result is a luxurious preserve, or topping or accompaniment whatever you want to call it that can be savoured on its own, dolloped on desserts or paired up with your favourite cheeses.
