Dessert in a jar


This is a fun (and convenient) way to present dessert, especially if you are at a barbecue, outdoor event or picnic. Prepare your dessert ahead of time to serve it cool or serve it just warm enough to hold in your hands. I have used a healthy lemon tapioca and yogurt combination, however you could easily create a decadent 'trifle in a jar' using jelly, custard, sponge cake and some peaches.

Tapioca seeds


Ingredients:

1 cup filtered water
3/4 cup tapioca seeds
100 grams brown sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup yoghurt


Method:

  • Bring the filtered water to the boil in a saucepan, then add the tapioca seeds, brown sugar and lemon juice.

  • Stir continuously, so that the mixture does not stick to the bottom of the saucepan, until the seeds become translucent.

  • Cooked tapioca ready for the jars


  • Spoon the first layer of mixture carefully into sterile glass jars.

  • Spoon a layer of yoghurt on top of the first layer, and repeat the layers so that you create a lovely striped effect. Place the lids on and present them in a lovely basket for your friends and family to enjoy.

  • Spoon the layers into the jars


  • Serve warm or cool and try not to feel too bad that you are eating your edible artwork.
