If you're in the market for more summer dessert recipes, we have plenty – as well as decadent boozy desserts, too.

Jelly recipes

Fresh strawberry jellies

A great way to make the most of fresh, sweet, in-season strawberries. These jellies make for a light and refreshing dessert that's quick to put together and best enjoyed in summer.

Rhubarb and vodka jellies

A very grown-up dessert, these boozy jellies, made with poached rhubarb and vodka (or Cointreau) look great and taste delicious. They are perfect for a fun gathering or party.

St Clement’s jellies

These lemon and orange jellies are family-friendly but you could add a dash of prosecco or cava for a more grown-up dessert.

We have turned one of our favourite cocktails into a smart dessert. For an authentic flavour, use cachaça, a clear Brazilian spirit made from sugarcane – but if you can’t get your hands on it, try any white rum instead.

Raspberry and mint jelly

Try our raspberry and mint jelly recipe for a contemporary, grown-up twist to a traditional party pudding. The mixture of flavours and the pretty red and transparent layers make this jelly a perfect centrepiece for any table.

Spiced creamy coffee jellies

Glossy and elegant, these spiced creamy coffee jellies are a great way to end a meal.

Fresh raspberry jelly

This jelly is made with fresh raspberries, so try to make it while the berries are in season throughout the summer months. Try serving with crème de menthe for a grown-up twist.

Turkish delight jellies

This recipe for Turkish delight jellies is really easy to make yet tastes beautiful – perfect if you're entertaining. You can adjust the amount of rose flavouring to your liking.
