Tips

If you are adding frozen fruits you can just add then without defrosting. Then just keep in the fridge as this will let the berries defrost on top of the dessert.

It's great to make this dessert in advance so making in the morning is a good idea for eating after dinner.

If you prefer to go vegan you can swap out the honey for maple syrup or maybe a sugar-based flavoured syrup.
