December thoughts … stress free desserts


and your emergency kit!

I mentioned prawn cocktail shots … here's another use for your shot or shooter glass. You can get different sizes and shapes of said glass. In this instance I'm using an example which is 100ml. It measures 11cms high x 7cms (4½”x 2¾”) in diameter and looks like this :



My suggested essential ingredients for your emergency kit are:

A tub of meringue kisses – available in most supermarkets
Sicilian Lemon Curd - M&S
Clementine Curd – M&S £2.50 and part of the
Christmas Food Range
Lemon, Gin & Tonic Sauce – £2.00 M&S




The Sicilian Lemon Curd is the best shop
bought version and I always keep a jar in my pantry – best
of all it's an all year round product


The Clementine Curd is part of the Christmas Food Range


The Lemon, Gin & Tonic Sauce first appeared as a grown-up
topping for pancakes – it went like hot cakes and is back by
popular demand

For the following emergency desserts you'll need another staple I've mentioned many times – Amaretti biscuits. You will also make life easier if you have disposable piping bags too.

Read on for my speedy antidote to trifle which doesn't contain cream or custard!
