Notes
If you read the method carefully, you would have noticed that I stirred in the gelatin for the strawberries and cream recipe. You can choose to skip this step and blend the gelatin in with the strawberries and coconut milk in the blender.
For the strawberries and cream recipe, it can be quite bland depending on your batch of strawberries. If you have a blander batch of strawberries, add in about a tablespoon of honey to naturally sweeten it. I learnt that the hard way!
If you choose not to use coconut milk for either the pineapple and coconut or strawberries and cream, you can choose to use plain yoghurt or alternative milk for this. You may just need to adjust the measurements depending on what you use.
For the apple and cinnamon recipe, I found that putting about 1 and a half cups of apples in meant that I didn't need to use some of the water for the recipe, but if you only have about one cup of stewed apples, then use about 1/4 cup of water for the recipe.
