Boil the sour cherries and granulated sugar in a small pot for 8 to 10 minutes, keeping the measure unchanged so the texture does not break down.
Cut the bread kadayif into small cubes so it absorbs the sour cherry sauce more evenly.
Let the fruit sauce stand until it reaches room temperature.
Keep the sour cherry syrup warm for 5 minutes, then drizzle it through the cup layers so the bread does not turn doughy.
Set the layers in gently so the filling does not spill from the edges.
Add the top garnish just before serving so the crisp texture does not get damp.
Chill the dessert for 10 minutes and serve after the texture settles.
💡 Tip: Briefly boiling the sour cherries gives tart flavor without darkening their color.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve cold with kaymak and pistachios.
