How to create a good looking yogurt and fruit dessert from scratch.

Yogurt dessert: How many time have you been to a good restaurant or cafe, ordered a dessert, and when it arrived you went like Wow! that looks good!

But you know what?  it is actually very easy to get the same look making it at home. Lets look at this in more details and see how a dessert is actually constructed in a cafe or restaurant kitchen.

let me take you through the steps that you never see when you place your order as it happens in the kitchen.

Let’s invent some simple dessert then shall we:

We will call that dessert: “the passionate fruit and nuts yogurt” ( I know I am terrible at giving names for dishes)
Alright, so you order that dish for your breakfast, So in the Kitchen we will hear: “One Fruity Passion Please”

Lets start with the base

1- Put a  good amount of Plain Yogurt in a bowl

2-  Add some Blueberries

3 – Then add some red fruits

4- and finally sprinkle some roasted cashew on top

for the garnish

Now that you have your base, you can start with adding garnish. Passion fruits always looks good and since you need a sweet element let’s add some honey. I am using  here a delicious Tasmanian Leatherwood Honey.

Sprinkle some of the passion fruit seed and swirl your honey over the fruits:

Time to dress it up

Done! your yogurt dessert has been created. Of course you have to dress it up to give it the wow factor. Simply use half a passion fruit, a few mint leaves and a bit icing sugar and see how the magic happens.

This is the end result you can now serve your Fruity passion Yogurt Dessert.

Some next  time you make a dessert just follow similar steps to achieve great results.
