Peaches, cream and pecans are three basic ingredients that make for a promising dessert.

Pro decorating tip: sprinkle the top of the crust with pearl or coarse sugar.

Trifles are a choice dessert to bring to a summer party. The layers of cookies, cream, and peach and apricot compote form a delightful combination of flavours and textures.

Serve it in a clear glass bowl for a presentation that’s sure to impress.
