Fruit salad!

Yes I would say fruit salad too make it all yummy with pineapple, mango, melon, cherries etc, not the way my gran made it with apples and bananas!

Yup, think you're stuck with something fruity. Warm fruit salad is nice - choose soft fruits such as peaches, nectarines, plums, apricots, blackcurrants. Slice the bigger fruit/half the smaller fruit (not th blackcurrants, obviously). Sprinkle with a little sugar and bake in moderate oven for 15 mins. Mix in rasberries once out of oven otherwise they'll go mushy. I know this is at your friends house, but you can prepare it ahead and wack in the oven between courses. There's a non-dairy icecream which is ok to go with it, perhaps?

Would marscapone be acceptable? If so, try this.
Mascapone cheese cake
Packet ginger biscuits crushed up and mixed with 2 oz butter. Set in loose bottomed tin. Mix 4 oz icing sugar with 2 pots of mascapone and zest & juice of lemon. Throw on top of biscuits. Chill for an hour. Job done!

Except wheat free person couldn't have the ginger biccies....

You can make cake with polenta, or with ground almonds.

Or rice pudding?

But I think fruit is nicest, in this weather.

Fruit salad. (but ask the mum if the fruits you plan to use are Ok, as some of us, mums of allergic children tend to make a fuss of the main allergies but rarely mention about those things we don't came accross to very often.

You really don't want to get into the misterious floritures of baking or making puddings without dairy and glutten free.

MaureenMLove · 02/07/2007 21:25

DerOh yeah! You could replace them with wheat free biscuits tho, I'm sure they do them.

Nightynight · 02/07/2007 21:27

when I had loads of food allergies, including wheat, all I ever got was fruit salad!

does the no cream eater eat Rice Pudding? that's wheat free.

Or why not ice cream, most people like that dont they? If you want to jazz it up, mix in some crumbled macaroons (wheat free), glace cherries, chocolate sauce, frozen raspberries or other such stuff.

Is chocolate ok? You could have a chocolate fondue (very retro) - this is what my vegan friends always have at mine. Just melt some chocolate and keep it warm over some tea lights and then have frut chunks like strawberry or banana to dip in. (Green & Blacks do a nice dark chocolate that's suitable for vegans).

Unless it's going to involve v small children, in which case avoid - too much to go wrong with skewers/tea lights/scalding chocolate.

You could make chocolate mousse? No need for cream, just eggs (separated) and chocolate (melt choc with egg yolk and then fold in whipped egg white and chill. Think it's 50g per egg?

Right spoke to her today - It is for adults not kids. And she willt ake a tablet so she eat whatever we want but the no creamer just said no cream not no milk.

Maybe a chocolate thick dense pudding? Anyone know a tested recipe. Like the GU puds?

You could do a pavlova, but use swedish glace dairy free ice-cream rather than cream for the non-dairy eaters.

Or use gluten free flour and soya spread to make a fruit crumble....again serve with Swedish Glace ice-cream (can be bought in Sainsbury's)

I've done both of the above...I'm gluten free (and love meringue) and a friend is dairy free.

Oh just realised that its not liking cream or custard rather than a dietary requirement....normal ice-cream will do then
