Dessert

[Tdp123]

Hi - I have been invited to a friends house for dinner tomorrow. What dessert should I take? Six adults.

I don't know what he is serving.

Blueberry cheesecake

Can't go wrong with a pavlova or a cheesecake

My go to is a white chocolate cheesecake with raspberry coulis or a lemon cheesecake. I often get requests for the former!

A pavlova is super easy and can look stunning with fruit piled on the top. Maybe make a wreath shape, slight dip in the middle of the ring to hold the cream, pile on fruit. Sometimes add lemon curd to the whipped cream.

Tiramisu. So easy to make. And if anyone is vegan or dairy free make it with flora plant based double cream. .

Pavlova is always popular. Or a tarte tatin.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone - was leaning towards a Key Lime Pie?

Making: Bread pudding with a boozy custard

Buying: Lemon tart

never had a proper key lime pie, but this mascarpone and lime torte has a similar vibe and is a doddle, it's a family favourite.

I love Key Lime Pie but can you get Key limes in time?

Also perhaps citrus for pudding is associated with warm weather? Of course it could help you pretend!

I think of chocolate, nuts or the traditional British puddings for this weather. A berry cheesecake seems good also.
