Mix cherries, liqueur or orange juice and sugar; marinate 1 hour or longer. Arrange lady fingers against sides of four martini glasses. Just before serving, spoon 1/2 cup of cherries over the lady fingers in each glass. Swirl 1 tablespoon whipped cream on top. Garnish with a maraschino cherry, if desired. Angel food cake or pound cake cut into 3- by 1- by 1/2 inch strips may be substituted for lady fingers. Lightly toast strips, if desired.
