Crema De Fruita Recipe

Originally, crema de fruita is a layered sponge cake and custard with fruits on top. Instead of sponge cake, broas or lady finger are sometimes used for layering. For a more delicate look, clear gelatin can also be placed on top. But this is optional.

This dessert is a mainstay during festivities, such as birthday celebrations and fiesta events. WIth the increasing popularity of no-bake desserts, crema de fruita can also be prepared this way. The now-known Graham crackers are essential in such dessert. It is easy and not time consuming. This is also advisable for those who do not have the time and oven to prepare your sponge cake. Instead of baking, you just need to open your Graham pack and you are ready to have your festive dessert.

Instead of the usual fruit cocktail, you can also opt to have fresh fruits on top. Enjoy such sweet!
