Lemon Chiffon Raspberry Parfait  #SummerDessertWeek

July 9, 2018 By Betsy Cohen

Lemon Chiffon Raspberry Parfait is a refreshing dessert that is perfect to celebrate #SummerDessertWeek. Light, airy and delicious. This post and recipe was created for #SummerDessertWeek! I was sent samples by some of the sponsor companies but as always opinions are 100% mine.

Lemon Chiffon Raspberry Parfait 


I am excited to be part of #SummerDessertWeek and I am kicking it off with a refreshing Lemon Chiffon Raspberry Parfait. Just what we all want on a hot summer day. Lemon Chiffon Raspberry Parfait is a refreshing dessert that is perfect to celebrate #SummerDessertWeek. Light, airy and delicious. The lemon chiffon starts with the filling of my Lemon Meringue Pie. However, I did not stop there as that filling is too thick for a light dessert. Once the filling cooled, I folded in just enough whipped cream to create a pillow of lemony goodness.  One of my favorite parts of making Lemon Chiffon Raspberry Parfait was knowing that I could make the lemon layer ahead of time and assemble shortly before serving. The fresh raspberries offer a delightful color and taste.  Lemon Chiffon Raspberry Parfait is a refreshing dessert that is perfect to celebrate #SummerDessertWeek. Light, airy and delicious. There are several sponsors associated with #SummerDessertWeek and I was thrilled to receive goodies from just about all of them. Dixie Crystals gift certificates for sugar were exactly what I needed for the sweetness of the lemon filling. Susquehanna Glass Company sent me beautiful glasses that I used for my parfaits. I highly recommend checking them out but know that you may assemble your Lemon Chiffon Raspberry Pafait in any shape or kind of glass you love. Lemon Chiffon Raspberry Parfait is a refreshing dessert that is perfect to celebrate #SummerDessertWeek. Light, airy and delicious. Be sure to scroll down after the recipe to see what the other #SummerDessertWeek bloggers made and how you can win some fab prizes.
