Tips
Looking to make this innovative dessert creation but don't have all the ingredients on hand? No worries! Here are some tips for ingredient substitutions that can help you create a delicious and satisfying dessert alternative. Instead of lemon curd, you can use lime curd or even orange curd for a different citrus twist. If you don't have vanilla beans for the whipped cream, you can use vanilla extract instead. And if you're missing the citrus coulis, a simple berry sauce or even a drizzle of honey can add a touch of sweetness and complement the flavors of the dessert. Don't be afraid to get creative and adapt the recipe to what you have available in your pantry.
