And while I can eat fresh, ripe berries by the bucketful, it's also sweet fun to create pies, muffins, scones, cakes, pudding, and ice cream with them. So for a tasty close to our weekend barbecue, I'll be serving these delectable little parfaits. You'll want to make the mousse and cashew creme ahead of time, so they have time to chill. Enjoy!
Raspberry Mousse Ingredients:
2 12.5-oz. packages silken tofu
2 1/2 cups fresh raspberries (thawed frozen raspberries will also work)
3/4 cup agave nectar or maple syrup
3 tsp. vanilla extract
Directions:
In food processor, whip tofu until smooth. Add berries, agave nectar, and vanilla and blend for another minute or so. Pour into a container with lid, and chill for at least 1-2 hours before serving.
Cashew Creme Ingredients:
1 1/3 cup raw cashews
1/2 cup water
3 tbsp agave nectar
1 tsp vanilla extract
Using a blender, blend all ingredients until smooth and fluffy. Chill before serving.
When ready to serve, assemble parfaits by layering raspberry mousse and cashew creme. Top with fresh blueberries. Makes 8 servings.

How simple and delicious! Thanks for sharing and happy 4th of July!
You have berry bushes? How great is that! I used to have wild blackberries growing in my yard when I lived in Southern California. It's great to wake up and pick your breakfast fresh! The parfait looks wonderful! Thank you for always making vegan so easy and delicious.
I'm insanely envious! Can I come pick berries from your garden, please?
This is so simple, even I can make it! Thanks for sharing your vegan wisdom.
Glad I saw the tweet about this! It looks yummy! And there's still time to make it for tomorrow's BBQ!
Berries are scrumptious as well as nutritious! And the cashew cream makes them a little decadent, yum! You're reminding me I'm long overdue for planting some vines myself!
There are so many ways to enjoy berries, and this sounds like a delectable recipe. Can't wait to try it!
Ooh, yummy!
