Compote

A chilled dish of fresh or dried fruit that has been slowly cooked in a sugar syrup (which may contain liquor or liqueur and sometimes spices). Slow cooking is important for the fruit to retain its shape. Also called compotier, a deep, stemmed dish (usually of silver or glass) used to hold fruit, nuts or candy.
