What fruit, often soaked in a suspension of food coloring, is found on top of a Manchester tart?
Maraschino cherry A maraschino cherry ( or ) is a preserved, sweetened cherry, typically made from light-colored sweet cherries such as the Royal Ann, Rainier, or Gold varieties. In their modern form, the cherries are first preserved in a brine solution usually containing sulfur dioxide and calcium chloride to bleach the fruit, then soaked in a suspension of food coloring (common red food dye, FD&C Red 40), sugar syrup, and other components.
Kutsinta Puto kutsinta or kutsinta (also spelled kutchinta or cuchinta) is a type of steamed rice cake ("puto") found throughout the Philippines. It is made from a mixture of rice flour, brown sugar and lye, enhanced with yellow food coloring or annatto extract, and steamed in small ramekins. The cooked cakes are topped with fresh grated meat from mature coconut. It is consumed year-round as a "merienda" or snack, and is frequently sold along with "puto". Unlike its counterpart, which has a doughy texture, "kutsina" has a jelly-like, chewy consistency. It can be also enhanced by adding "latik" for a sweeter taste.
