This mango parfait is a delicious and fuss-free dessert that is sure to make an impression. It can be easily customized with whatever you have in your pantry, so go ahead and make some this summer.
I had some leftover canned mango pulp that was sitting in the refrigerator, which I could have easily enjoyed as it is! But the blogger in me was itching to do something with it. Browsed through my refrigerator, I had a sponge cake, cool whip and I had recently bought mangoes from the grocery store!
So I already knew what I was making – mango parfait it was!
The previous night I prepared the jelly and let it set, so I could put this together the next day. This is quite similar to the fruit custard and jelly I’ve shared earlier, except this time I took the shorter way out and used cool whip instead of making the custard.
You could also use some yogurt, sweeten it and whisk it well to get rid of any lumps. To make it even more decadent how about a cream cheese plus condensed milk mixture? Aahh endless possibilities, there is always a next time 🙂
There is absolutely no right or wrong way of making a parfait. That’s the best part about making one!
For now, let’s go ahead and have a look at how to make this creamy mangolicious parfait! Simple, fuss-free and divine!

HOW TO MAKE MANGO PARFAIT?
Mango Parfait Recipe
Ingredients
Measuring cup used, 1 cup = 250 ml, 1 tsp = 5 ml
- 2 cake slices 1 cup cubed cake pieces
- 1/2 cup mango pulp
- 1 cup of whipped cream/ custard/ sweet whisked yogurt
- 1 cup small mango pieces
- 1 jelly packet
- Mint leaves and cherries for garnish optional
Instructions
- Prepare the jelly as per package instructions, leave it to set. I like to do this in the night so it sets well in the refrigerator overnight.
- Take your serving glass, layer as following :- 1/2 cup cake pieces, 1/4 cup mango pulp, 1/4 cup of whipped cream/custard/sweet whisked yogurt, 1/2 cup of mango pieces, 1/4 cup of whipped cream/ custard/ sweet whisked yogurt. Top it off with some roughly chopped jelly cubes, or with some nuts of your choice. Garnish with cherries and mint leaves. You can let this sit in the refrigerator for a couple of hours (only if you use custard ) or serve right away (preferably for the cream version). Enjoy!
