Trifle

Layers of sponge, custard, fruit and cream make trifle a sure winner for an impressive dessert. Layer it high in a glass bowl and place in the middle of the table for an impressive end to any meal.

Mousse

Choose the always popular chocolate mousse, or opt for a lighter raspberry or peach version for an impressive dessert.

Fools and flummeries

Make good use of the season's best fruit with a creamy fool or flummery. For a healthy alternative you can even opt to use yoghurt instead of cream.

Ice cream

Making your own ice cream is easier than you imagine. Once you have a recipe you love you can easily adjust it, adding liqueur, fruit or shards of chocolate to make a truly decadent dessert.

Jelly

When the weather turns warm, you can't beat a jelly to beat the heat. These recipes are a long way from the jellies you'd usually see at kids' birthday parties, adding a sophisticated touch to this childhood favourite.
