Montmorency tart cherries add the perfect sour-sweet flavor and bright red color to these flavor bombs. The ruby red color of these cherries is due to a compound called anthocyanins โ€“ this phytonutrient provides the color, distinctive taste and has been widely studied for its potential health benefits.

Studies on Montmorency tart cherries have included research on arthritis and gout, exercise recovery, sleep, heart health and gut health. I donโ€™t know about you, but I love being able to enjoy foods that may benefit my health.

These sweet treats are incredibly simple to make and only require only 6 ingredients. In my opinion, they taste like a cheesecake without the crust. I love having one of these if my sweet tooth is aching or as a quick snack in between meals.

What you need to make these Tart Cherry Fat Bombs

  • Cream Cheese, at room temperature
  • Coconut milk or heavy cream. For the coconut milk, make sure to use canned, unsweetened.
  • Monk Fruit granulated sweetener. This is my favorite low-carb sweetener because it doesnโ€™t leave an aftertaste. However, feel free to use sweetener of choice.
  • Vanilla Extract
  • Whipped topping
  • Canned Montmorency tart cherries

Where can you find Montmorency tart cherries?

Even though you wonโ€™t find Montmorency tart cherries in the produce section, they are always farm fresh since they are picked at the peak of ripeness in summer and quickly dried, frozen, canned or juiced to deliver a delicious product year-round.

As a recipe tester, quality is important, and I know what I can expect every time with Montmorency tart cherries. Additionally, Montmorency is the varietal of tart cherries that is grown right here in the U.S., so when you see Montmorency you know youโ€™re helping support American agriculture and preserve generation sold family farms.

In conclusion, I choose Montmorency tart cherries because they provide an adventurous flavor, offering something new and unique compared to other fruits.

    Looks so yummy! Adding the canned Montmorency tart cherries to my grocery list. Thank you for sharing ๐Ÿ™‚

    These look absolutely wonderful but Iโ€™m afraid they arenโ€™t on my diet, BUT…. I have been buying Montmorency Tart Cherry juice for at least 3 years for the joint pain and other inflammation pain that I have. It is the best thing out there for pain relief from inflammation. I have told all of my friends and relatives and even complete strangers about it. I even went to the store and bought a bottle of it for a cashier that I heard complain about leg and hip pain. Please get the word out to people about the wonderful benefits of Montmorency Tart Cherry Juice. I drink it in water but my favorite way is in seltzer water. Itโ€™s a yummy bubbly drink.
