  I love the contrast between the sharpness of plums and the sweetness of the fruit loaf, which makes this dessert nicely balanced and not too sweet.

strawberries with balsamic vinegar & mascapone cheese
strawberries with balsamic vinegar & mascapone cheese
  Try this! The sweetness of strawberries works amazingly well with the sharpness of balsamic vinegar, while mascarpone gives it a velvety texture.

mango & chocolate pudding
mango & chocolate pudding
  I really like this dessert as it is not too sweet or heavy. I made a bit of a mess when I cooked it the first time hence fuss level 2 - but it is actually very easy to make.

passion fruit dessert
passion fruit dessert
  Simply divine! This dessert is refreshing and zesty because of the wonderful tang of the passion fruit. Raisins bring an extra crunch to an otherwise very smooth texture.

spicy mango with lime cream

  A totally bizarre combination, yet all the flavours work beautifully together: the sweetness of mango with the hotness of chilli and a refreshing zing of lime that is ever so slightly hinted in the cream. Delicious!

instant tiramisu

  I always thought tiramisu would take ages to make, but all you need is 15mins to create my version this fabulously rich desert! I love Baileys in it but you can use double cream instead.

rhubarb & pineapple crumble
rhubarb & pineapple crumble
  This is an alternative take on a crumble which uses the pineapple. Even if you are not a great fan of rhubarb you should try it – there is no acidity, just enough sharpness to balance the sweetness.

blackberry eton mess
blackberry eton mess
  An old favourite with a twist of adding Greek yoghurt to enhance the flavour. Instead of strawberries, I’ve used blackberries, but this desert works equally well with any soft fruit in season.
