Ingredients
- 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 star anise
- 1/2 teaspoon whole cloves
- Pinch of kosher salt
- 1/4 cup heavy cream, (chilled)
- 1/4 cup creme fraiche, (chilled)

Instructions
- Special equipment: 4 coupe glasses or dessert dishes
- In a small saucepan, combine the syrup, cinnamon, star anise, cloves and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat and simmer gently for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow the mixture to cool completely. Strain the syrup through a fine mesh strainer, discarding the spices. Cool to room temperature.
- In a medium bowl, combine the heavy cream, creme fraiche, 2 teaspoons of the spiced syrup and vanilla. Using a large whisk or handheld mixer, beat until the cream thickens and soft peaks begin to form (careful not to over whip).
- Divide the berries among 4 coupe glasses or dessert dishes. Dollop with the whipped creme fraiche and drizzle with 1 to 2 teaspoons of the syrup. Sprinkle with almonds, if using. Leftover syrup will keep for 2 weeks in the refrigerator in a sealed jar.
