Summer Shrimp Cups for Fish and Kids

We have been huge fans of Fish & Kids collections for a few years now. Florence has adored her midi dress which she’s worn so many times over the past few summers. Pilar always designs her collections with such intricate details and uses beautifully textured fabrics, so easy to wear. So when I received an email from Pilar to ask us to create a bespoke recipe for her new S/S 2020 collection we were thrilled. The brief - to make something fishy.

Together with the girls, we decided to make something fresh and simple, something perfect for a starter for an al fresco supper. Here’s our recipe for summer sprimp cups. We hope you enjoy it.
