To use this black raspberry topping, simply open the jug. You can pour or spoon it directly onto your dessert. For a more decorative effect, you can use a piping bag to create swirls or patterns. It can also be gently warmed if a slightly runnier consistency is desired, though it is typically used at room temperature. Stirring the topping before use can help ensure a smooth texture, especially if it has been stored for a while.

How to keep the rest
