Semifreddo recipes

A semifreddo (literally meaning half cold) is a classic Italian semi-frozen dessert. It’s light, creamy and refreshing, standing somewhere between an ice cream and mousse.

Try something new with a moreish baklava ricotta semifreddo, get the festive feeling with a Christmas pudding semifreddo or enjoy a moreish mash-up in this frozen thandai meringue cake.
