18 IMPRESSIVE DINNER PARTY DESSERTS AND PUDDING IDEAS
1. MARSALA AND MASCARPONE SYLLABUB
A syllabub is a real English classic when it comes to dinner party desserts and this recipe with a marsala twist is one of our favourites. The pudding can be made in a few simple steps and will also keep overnight, meaning you can make it the night before and pop in the fridge to chill before it's ready to serve.
2. BANOFFEE PIE
A classic dessert recipe that will instantly take you back to your childhood - your guests will just love this delicious but super easy dessert recipe. Ready in just an hour and big enough to serve eight - you can prep this ahead and serve a big crowd. We made this in a high-sided cake tin for a deep-pan filling finish, but you can also make it in a traditional flan tin for a thinner base.
3. CHOCOLATE FLORENTINE TORTE
A chocolate torte is a winner for any dinner party you might be throwing, and this Florentine version is extra impressive. Easily serving 10 people, it's a great pudding to bring out at larger gatherings and special celebrations.
4. BOURBON GLAZED DOUGHNUT
James Martin's glazed doughnut and homemade malted milk ice cream takes a bit of extra effort but is well worth the results for a perfectly spongy doughnut. For a dessert that feels really different from the norm, give this special sweet treat a try.
5. LEMON AND PROSECCO SORBET
With lemon and elderflower this pudding offers a summery lightness that will help cleanse the pallet after a heavy meal and it also smells delicious. Plus a hint of prosecco offers a boozy element to this dessert which we love. Try it next time you're entertaining and you'll not be disappointed.
6. VANILLA PANNA COTTA
This vanilla panna cotta is best made a day in advance so it has time to set before you add the final decorations and serve it. Making it the night before your dinner party means more time chatting to friends and less time in the kitchen on the evening of your dinner. Win win!
7. LEMON, RASPBERRY AND THYME TART
For a simple yet delicious pudding for your next dinner party, you can't go wrong with a classic lemon tart with a crystallised thyme twist. Sweet, sharp and ready in just an hour and a half, this is a real treat of a dessert option. Read More...
