These look fantastic. My grocery store has peaches and blackberries on sale this week; I might just swap out until I can hit the farmer’s market for some fresh blueberries.
Hi Tim! I hope all is well! My daughters are actually blueberry picking this afternoon – I can’t wait to make these. We love receiving your recipes and insights!
Take Care
Leslie!
Oh, these look fantastic. I’m imagining them made with teeny, tiny wild blueberries from Maine…going to have to remember this for a little later this summer.
Ah! I really wanted to go to Martyn George last weekend but couldn’t find the time. I’ve never been, and seeing these plates of yours, it’s such a shame that it’s closing. Maybe I can try this weekend, seeing as it’s the last.
Hello from Australia!
Just wanted to say absolutely in love with your blog concept and thanks a bunch for mentioning Martyn George, those plates are simply beautiful x
These remind me of a cobbler topping and I am not sure id shortcakes in the US are similar to scones in the UK but they look more like them than out shortbread. Lovely and rustic but with a fruity flavour, they sound delicious!
I made these this weekend for Sunday brunch with my boyfriend. We loved them. And that cream cheese whipped cream is a revelation. I want to keep eating it, even though I’ve most certainly had enough. ;) Thanks for yet another great post.
I live so close to Martyn George, but I never knew about it, and I didn’t make it to before their closing. Sad
Depending on the blueberries at Daley Plaza on Thursday, I want to make these for a dinner party on Friday night. Do you think the whipped cream cheese will be stable enough to hold for a couple hours? I am hoping and thinking it may since it reminds me of the whipped cream cheese in Cook’s Illustrated Strawberry Dream Cake. Thanks.

Last weekend I bought five pounds of Michigan blueberries in Fennville. This will be just the ticket, as soon as the weather breaks!

Funny, and sometimes I don’t know what else to comment besides “Whoa… I want that”

Hi Christina- Yep, the whipped cream cheese will hold for a few hours in the fridge, no problem!

I feel like shortcakes tend to be exclusively strawberry–it’s good to know they let other fruits shine as well!
