What you’ll need – serves 4

• 2 cups Thickened Cream
• 1/2 cup Sugar
• pinch salt
• 1 tablespoon Lemon zest 
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 2 cups Raspberries – frozen or fresh is ok

To serve

• Golden Calamansi Flavour Pearls
• Raspberry Flavour Finisher
• 4 tablespoons Cream – whipped with a little Sugar or Double Cream
• 4 glasses/bowls/tea cups to serve

To do

Combine the Cream, Sugar, Salt and Lemon zest in a medium saucepan. Heat to a gentle simmer for a good 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add in the Raspberries, squishing them up a bit with the spoon and cook for another 5 minutes. It will start to appear a touch thicker.

Next

Pour the hot creamy Raspberry mix through a sieve into a jug, pushing the Raspberries through with a spatula to get all of the flavour. Add in the Lemon juice and give it a stir. Pour the Posset mixture into your chosen servingware, cover with gladwrap to prevent the tops drying out and refrigerate for at least a couple of hours to set. *I used some cute glasses that I found at the Op Shop*

To serve

To present simply add a spoonful of Cream, a sprinkle of Raspberry Flavour Finisher and some Golden Calamansi Flavour Pearls and enjoy.

Until next time
