Canned strawberries, peaches or other fruit pie fillings may be used instead of cherries. Recently I've preferred cherries, which rather surprised me.

@LiteraryMind: I've done it with peaches, but the ice cream sounds good also. Thanks for the ideas.
Open a can of peaches and put a scoop of ice cream on it. This is a good idea. Looks pretty fancy.
Very nice lens. You helped give me a quick fix dessert idea for the drop ins. I appreciate you sharing because I like all the ingredients used to make this dessert. Thank You senditondown fro stopping by a couple of my lenses and giving each of them a "thumbs up". I really appreciate it. (^_^)
Sometimes just an orange cut up with a little plain yogurt and a drizzle of maple syrup works well in a pinch!
Sound delish. Of course I may have to make a few practice ones and try them out myself before I serve it to company. Quality assurance and all that. ;)
Looks so good!
YUMMY!!!
Sounds super easy and yummy! I would have to go with the strawberry pie filling I think though. Blessings. :)
This is my kind of cooking. It looks quick and easy, but turns out really nice looking.
Yeah, I run to the bakery that's a block away and buy something; that's a plus of big city living.
this is really a practical thing to do to a pound cake, tuning. blessings for a wonderful idea. i never thought about it.
I have made the Pound cake for years when in a quick bind...and when I don't have a filling, I use jams or jellies, you can even use two different flavors at one time, they make a delicious tasting cake.
