Dessert ideas?

[lilolilmanchester]

Am usually ok with this stuff but not well and need some ideas.. Starters (pasta based) and main (fish based) sorted ... Can't bring myself to think about sweet stuff so lazily asking for ideas.. Something more exciting than fruit salad/poached pears... Meringue based out because one guest doesn't like meringue; tiramisu out; overly Rich and chocolaty out too...

lemon tart? Pannacotta? Creme Brulee?

Lemon posset (easiest thing ever to make), with a little bit of shortbread?

shortbread biscuits with fresh raspberries and cream
bread and butter pudding
posh trifle no jelly - fresh strawberries/raspberries/ sponge and cream layered in glasses

Key lime pie?

Have a look at the carnation website

Delias chocolate bread and butter pudding

Eton Mess with Cinder Toffee instead of meringue?

(Brill cinder toffee recipe www.mumsnet.com/food/recipe/1645-Cinder-toffee )

Some kind of syllabub?

jelly (with tinned manderines in it) and icecream
trifle using shop bought ingredients
chocolate and marmalade (use lime marmalade) slump cake with whipped cream

Cheesecake, Or chocolate brownies and homemade ice cream.

Sticky toffee pudding? There is a Mary Berry recipe that is easy to make & yummy! Failing that, an apple tart with ice cream- always a winner!

Wow, thanks all. Am leaning towards something citrusy for this particular meal but loving the other ideas too, diet might have to wait a while...
