Desserts

Lemon Curd Syllabubs

Where possible, use fresh homemade lemon curd for these intensely flavoured desserts, but, if time is short, 330ml good-quality lemon curd is an acceptable shortcut

Chocolate torte with rum

Outrageously indulgent and rich, this continental cake makes a dramatic and delicious finish to a meal

Fruit and nut winter compote

Make this delicious pudding a day ahead – it tastes wonderfully spicy and alcoholic

Tropical Pavlova Cake

This frivolous, gooey pavlova, with an exotic mango and passionfruit twist, is the perfect finale for an Easter lunch or high tea

Celebration Saturnalia dessert

Make this extravaganza in a large glass bowl to show its many layers at their best. For true baroque splendour, decorate with edible gold leaf, available from cake decorating suppliers.
