Who would have ever thought you could turn a vegetable like beetroot into a beautiful and colorful dessert, right?

Beetroot Barfi is a milk based Indian sweet made with beetroot and is absolutely tasty. If not for the color, you wouldn't even know the sweet contains beetroot. 

I got this recipe idea from a fellow food blogger. I was instantly attracted to the bright pink color of the sweet and decided to give it a try! Needless to say, this sweet is a quick and healthy version of the regular Indian versions of sweets. And with the many Indian festivals on-going and coming up, you should definitely give this a try!

Strawberry Charlotte Cake | French Classic Dessert | Icebox Cake

French Charlotte Cake Recipe | How to make French Charlotte Cake

A classic French dessert that dates back to the eighteenth century. The cake features delicious summer fruit- strawberry, Bavarian cream and lady finger cookies. In this version, I have made a variation wherein I incorporated Raspberry in the mousse and since the Covid-19 lockdown was on, I couldn't find lady finger cookies around. Instead, I used regular butter cookies that are a lil stiffer than most.

A Charlotte Russe Cake is usually referred to 'icebox cake' which means a layered dessert that includes whipped cream or mousse, sandwiched between layers of crispy cookies or sponge cake. The sponge cake is baked with the most simplest ingredients and the cookies can also be made at home. In this version, I have baked the sponge cake (included in the recipe) but used store-brought cookies. The main part of this dessert cake is to line all the elements patiently in a mould and refrigerate it. Refrigeration is always the hardest part cause when you make something as beautiful as this, it's hard to resist eating it immediately (haha!). However, the longer you refrigerate, the better your cake will be!

This cake may sound very difficult in the beginning, however, if you follow the steps precisely, you'll know how easy it is! To make it simpler, I have divided this recipe into 3 key elements.

A creamy Mango Mousse is an absolutely wonderful choice for a dessert after meal or even just a snack anytime of the day. The beauty of this recipe is that it uses Mango puree which can be store-bought off season or even better, made fresh when Mango is in season.

Since the only available mangoes that I could use were Atuaulfo (honey mango)- creamy and extremely sweet. I did not need to add any sugar to this recipe. 

For serving options, I have made 3 versions of the same Mango Mousse
1. Mousse topped with fresh Mango
2. Mousse topped with homemade Mango Jelly
3. Mousse topped with roasted almonds, pistachio and saffron
