Waitrose duck and waffle stuffing

Options
I have seen Waitrose advertise duck and waffle stuffing and I really fancy it for Christmas. http://www.waitrose.com/shop/DisplayProductFlyout?productId=524455
I thought I could make it myself, but it is not in the shop yet so cannot look at the ingredients.
Does anyone have any idea what could be in it apart from duck and waffles (apart from the sour cherries)?
I am assuming the sour cherries are in as the waffle would be quite sweet.
I was going to slow roast some duck and shred it (keeping the duck fat of course for potatoes) but was unsure whether to use sausage meat to hold it together.
As well as this, where would I get sour cherries.

    Sour cherries you buy in the cake ingredient aisle , they come dried

    What I would do, is soak the cherries , tear up the waffles, add the rosemary and some softened onion, and the duck, put it all in a small oven dish then add the duck juices to bind it all with a dash of hot water. Season to taste, then in the oven giving it a good stir and turn every five mins so you get lovely crispy bits as well as soft stuffing

    A squeeze of orange in as well wouldn't go amiss, or a bit of grated orange zest

    Duck and Waffle Stove Top Stuffing (£6.99) is inspired by traditional stuffing from the USA. Looser in texture and cooked on the stovetop, the pulled duck and sour cherries soaked in red wine vinegar are mixed with soffritto and dressed in wholegrain mustard, Belgium waffles and fresh rosemary.

    I say: How much???

    It's probably packed by organically-reared virgins deep in the Amazon rain forest, who are lessening the eco-footprint by planting two trees for every one used to produce the recycle-friendly packaging.

    The virgins also hand-stroke each grain as it's lovingly placed, individually, in each box before giving each batch a group hug and singing as it leaves the production area; a cheery wave can be seen, with a tear in the corner of the eye, as the virgins say goodbye to the hand-picked produce and hope they bring light and joy to your life.

    They aren't very nice though, or very sour!
