cake at its base.
Ingredients
2 litres soya vanilla ice cream (or coconut ice-cream)
1 cup frozen raspberries
3 tablespoons undiluted Buderim Ginger Cordial
1 Zehnder Gluten free cake
¾ cup mixed dried fruit (like sultanas, raisins, cranberries, currents)
1 cup glace fruit, chopped, like cherries, orange slices, kiwifruit, pears and ginger
Extra raspberries to serve
Silver cachous
Pudding basin
2 litres soya vanilla ice cream (or coconut ice-cream)
1 cup frozen raspberries
3 tablespoons undiluted Buderim Ginger Cordial
1 Zehnder Gluten free cake
¾ cup mixed dried fruit (like sultanas, raisins, cranberries, currents)
1 cup glace fruit, chopped, like cherries, orange slices, kiwifruit, pears and ginger
Extra raspberries to serve
Silver cachous
Pudding basin
Method
·
Line a pudding basin with two layers of cling
wrap, leaving plenty of overhang
·
Allow ice-cream to soften slightly at room
temperature
·
Mix glace/dried fruit mixture with ginger
cordial
·
Fold gently through ice cream
·
Very gently add and fold through raspberries
·
Pour mixture into prepared pudding bowl
·
Pat down leaving a few centimetres from the top,
cover with plastic cling wrap
·
Freeze for 30 minutes
·
Cut Zehnder gluten free cake so it will fit on
top, completely covering it, making a base
·
Cover with plastic wrap and freeze for at least
8 hours
·
Fill sink with warm water and warm the outside
of the pudding basin for around 1 minute to soften ice cream edges slightly
·
Turn out onto a serving plate, top with extra
raspberries and silver cashous, drizzle with raspberry juices from bag, serve
immediately
Notes
·
Use brandy or liqueur in place of the ginger
cordial for adult version
·
Optionally Serve with a berry syrup and dairy
free white chocolates
You can of course use dairy ice cream if desired and a non gluten free cake base if your family are allergy free.
Toddler Tips
·
Serve theirs with lots of fresh raspberries
Make
them their own smaller version using small basins and leave out glace ginger.
If no dairy allergies you could include red and green miniature m&m’s for a
festive look
