What to do with our bigarreaux
Bigrall cherries are firmer than other varieties. They have a mild, sweet flavor with a slight acidity. Their flesh is firm, which makes them ideal for pies, clafoutis and cakes where an intact cherry is preferred because their easier pitting makes it more regular. In addition, they retain their shape better when cooked

Morello cherries are smaller and darker than cherries, with dark red to black skin. They have a more intense and slightly tart flavor, which makes them perfect for adding a touch of pep to a recipe. Their flesh is more tender than that of cherry cherries, and they are often used as a garnish for desserts such as Black Forest
