It’s Summer in Australia and it’s lovely\u00a0and\u00a0hot. When it’s hot we always feel like icecream. Often we will treat ourselves at our local fabulous icecream joint, but our waistlines wouldn’t be happy with us if we did that every day.<\/p>\n

So, to fulfill our sweet urge, increase our fruit intake, make sure we have an afternoon snack (the best way to prevent the 3’oclock afternoon Tim Tam binge), we often make some sort of fruity yoghurt treat.<\/p>\n

This type of thing is absolutely perfect for Christmas as it’s light and healthy, looks cute and provides an alternative to heavy pudding and trifle.<\/p>\n

We had these recently at a breakfast BBQ by the river, and they were a real hit. I simply packed all the fruit and a tub of yoghurt in a cooler bag, with a box of plastic wine glasses and did all the layering at the picnic. Perfect.<\/p>\n

So get your cups out and start layering.<\/p>\n
