- Always use fresh raspberries for the best flavor.
- You can adjust the sugar to taste, depending on how sweet you like your topping.
- Substitute the raspberries with blackberries for a more tart flavor. The benefit of this substitution is that the tartness of the blackberries will add a nice contrast to the sweetness of the other ingredients.
- Substitute the granulated sugar with honey for a richer sweetness. The benefit of this substitution is that honey has a more complex flavor than sugar, and it will add a more interesting depth of flavor to the topping or sauce.
