Diwali is all about sweets and there could be no better way to celebrate this most beloved South Asian festival than enjoying really pretty looking and delicious cupcakes. Give this recipe a try to impress your family and friends for Diwali!
I love this dessert, the meringue can be made the day before, the fruit and syrup can be done the day before or earlier in the day and all you need to do is whip the cream and put it all together. It is also a really impressive dessert and is truly delicious. I have poached the apricots in saffron and rose and they slightly remind me of fruity gulab jamun. You can make this as one large one or smaller individual ones.
