Still obsessed with making parfaits.
July 30, 2012
My sister requested parfaits for her birthday and I was happy to oblige. I started with sliced strawberry and baby plum, looking fresh and gorgeous. These would be the cooked fruit layer, along with fresh layers of blueberry.I also needed a cake layer and a ton of coconut whipped cream. This time around I had planned to flavor and tint the cream with pomegranate juice, like this recipe, but the stark white prevailed. The coconut milk solids creamed perfectly, thick and delicious, on this third attempt. So my tip is to use a full fat coconut milk that is not Goya. Another tip is to make a neutral cake. This one added a bit too much sweetness. A biscuit or a shortcake would be best.Another beauty, dressed to impressed.
