so since my vegan fruit salad with cashew cream was such a success, i had no second thoughts on which vegan cream to use.

so there i added cashew cream with some organic cane sugar and vanilla and had a beautiful bowl of custard apple cream.

now the dessert was a creamy, sweet dessert and you don’t miss the regular cream here. apart from this recipe, you can also make custard apple ice cream.

this dessert has become a hot favorite at home now. you can use regular cream instead of cashew cream. the recipe has been adapted from about.com. you can also check mango ice cream and vanilla ice cream recipe.

  3. I love this and have tried many times with malai, my in laws had a tree at home. I also use a lot of cashew cream but never tried both these together..this is a lovely idea. Your pictures are heavenly..

  4. My mother made this differently. She would blend the custard apple pulp. Then blend is some milk and sugar if required. Then thicken it with a little cornflour. Serve it chilled. Have been wanting to make this sometime, but somehow have never been able to get those big-eyed custard apple for a few seasons now!

  5. Oh wow I can’t wait to try that out for myself. What amazing flavores Dassana! I haven’t come across custard apples yet, but I am going to the market on saturday, so I ll keep an eye out for them. thanks for sharing!

  6. I’ve never had it, but I’d love to try. My friend is from Mumbai. I wonder if she could make it with me! 🙂

  7. Believe it or not, I’ve never had sitaphal before. This is a bowl of delicious autumn. And I love the use of cashew cream 🙂

  9. This looks super yummy…As a kid used to eat lot of this fruit…Had a tree at home..:) Its long that I dint have it..Loved the presentation..White on white is really tough to capture..Loved that..and the little colors by saffron and flower..
    Hey regarding the spoon stuff…I too find it really tough to place it properly…after some attempts I just drop it somewhere and sometimes that works for me…:)

  12. I love sitaphal. We have got sitaphal tree in out front garden in India and used get loads during the season. I am back to my childhood which brought me tears in my eyes. We can’t get here which really strange as Almost every single fruit we get here in UK on its season time.

    Great sitaphal cream recipe though. Lovely clicks as usual. I love the flower display too. It looks very pretty.
