Summer Desserts

Summer desserts are a lovely thing to cook, with so many fresh seasonal fruits and berries to choose from. Whether you’re looking for a dinner party show-stopper or something to make for afternoon tea and cake in the garden (weather permitting!) then we’ve got a fantastic range of recipes to choose from. This pavlova with whipped cream and fresh juicy berries is the perfect choice for any occasion, while this baked ricotta cake with caramelised peaches from Gordon Ramsay makes a decadent treat that looks impressive, too. For the ultimate summer cake, pick a strawberry and custard fraisier cake, lemon drizzle cake, or chocolate and raspberry torte. Head on over to our recipe section to feast your eyes on an array of sweet treats, from quick fixes to party pieces.
