10 Delicious Eggless Mango Desserts to make now

10 delicious Eggless Mango Desserts you NEED to make before the season ends. I can’t say it enough even though I keep repeating myself over and over again, mango season is a season we love to love here on the subcontinent! If there’s one thing that makes the Indian summer bearable, it’s definitely mangoes.

There is just SO MUCH you can do with mangoes and for me the most fun thing to do is create eggless desserts around mangoes! We’re now looking at the last month of the mango season here on the subcontinent and yes, there are still loads of ripe, juicy, delicious mangoes available. This Eggless Mango Trifle Pudding I shared recently is too delicious and so refreshing. It’s really simple as well!

I’d say grab a few kilos, chop and freeze some for smoothies etc, make a few jars of eggless mango curd and freeze them for later perhaps, else go ahead a try some of the recipes I’ve shared below. Of course, there are several more egg free mango desserts on the blog too.

There’s never a better time to get your mango dessert skills sharpened and most of my dessert recipes are simple and straightforward {read fuss free}. I’m sharing a selection of bake and no bake eggless mango desserts, most of them one bowl recipes and honestly, this is just a handful. I have to confess that my favourite part is garnishing them because the pop of ‘mango‘ colour always brightens the dessert table!

There’s something for everyone, and I really enjoy making these eggless desserts time and again. I often use different elements from different recipes to create a completely new dessert and that keeps me inspired through the season. The collage below tells you pretty much how much and more you can do with elements from different recipes!

Most of the eggless mango desserts are make ahead and I love that freshly diced mango adds such a pop of colour to the garnish. Throw on a few fresh organic rose petals {I grow my own desi gulab}, maybe fresh mint, some chili flowers and you’re good to go!

Colours and natural flavours in quick, simple desserts is what I really enjoy creating. Hopefully I’ll have just as much fun this year as well working with desserts in colour, a ton of natural flavour and layers. I hope you have a colourful and exciting 2024 as well!

There’s something about berries that makes desserts interesting and exciting, delicious too obviously. Berries offer endless charm and endless ways to create dessert. Another great idea for desserts is playing with different hues of the same or similar colours to create creating ombre patterns. I’ve also found that chocolate often brings these desserts together beautifully!

Ombre layers are one of my favourite ways to dessert and this Ombre Blueberry Cheesecake turned out smooth, fresh and really delicious. Each spoonful was addictive, the berry flavours dancing on the palette!

Quite The Perfect Recipe For No-Bake Mango Cheesecake … Deliciously Easy

The simplest & most delicious No-Bake Mango Cheesecake… A recipe that uses just 4 ingredients for the cheesecake filling, this is the quickest, eggless, no bake mango cheesecake I’ve ever made and I’ve made many!! This one is also the simplest one!

I get a load of DMs on Instagram and recipe requests for mango based desserts through the mango season and this was yet another of my favourites, and I have many! There are no holds barred when it comes to mango and I’ve really enjoy the season.

This summer has been a season of plenty … plenty of mangoes with over a thousand varieties, plenty of ideas, loads of inspiration, tonnes of deliciousness. What that means is I get to share plenty of mango recipes with you! Thank you for stopping by!

It’s difficult to pick a favourite dessert when it comes to the king of fruits, but cheesecake lovers rule the world, so I’m sharing this absolutely delicious, no fuss recipe. The mango season is now drawing to a close on the subcontinent so hopefully you will try this recipe soon.

I really liked how this came together, almost like magic. I have a high speed blender so I just threw everything into it and had a smooth cheesecake batter in a couple of minutes. Alternatively, you can puree and strain the mango separately, then whisk everything together with a hand blender to get a smooth batter. The white chocolate adds enough sweetness and helps the cheesecake set.

Everything about this No-Bake Mango Cheesecake is pleasing. The colours, the texture, the set, the flavours and of course, the appearance. Hope you try this recipe soon!

My love for layered desserts, natural flavours, fruit in dessert, petite cakes and chocolate all meet in this little dessert cake. Each spoon is bursting with fresh, deep flavour and you just want to keep diving in!

There’s something about natural colors of fruits that really appeals to me, so much so that I can’t get enough. It’s always about pairing and always about a freshness of flavour. Add to that the visual appeal because desserts must look good and taste as nice!

Talking about colours makes me think of berries instantly. I make eggless desserts a LOT with berries through summer as I find them fascinating … so much appeal, so much fresh flavour, also a ton of natural colour! One of my favourite berries are raspberries and I find them endlessly inspiring. This Eggless Raspberry Pistachio Cake is the result of one such inspiration!

Think berries, think colour, then think pistachios and fall in love with that quintessential pistachio green. I’m smitten by the beautiful pistachio green and how well it pairs with the vibrant red of raspberries. Tke a look at the collage below and you’ll know what I mean. It’s therapeutic working with such colours and flavours and an absolute joy to style and shoot them! Just feels so effortless!

Pretty Raspberry Cheesecake Cups … you need this delicious summer dessert

Raspberry Cheesecake Cups … eggless, no bake and quick! Colourful too. There’s something about berries that scream summer and this vibrant dessert has all the elements I love. It’s fresh and exciting, the balance of sweet and tart simply dance on the palette, the flavours coming alive with every bite – honestly amazing!

These eggfree cheesecake cups demonstrate how well frozen raspberries work in desserts, and how effortlessly dried raspberry powder can uplift a cheesecake filling. It’s that very combination of sweet and tart, with a crisp biscuit crumb in between that has my heart!

You’ll see me using berries often while I make desserts, especially summer desserts. I love the freshness and colour they add to dessert, and also how simple they are to incorporate into just about any recipe. They’re also pretty reasonable in season though some like fresh raspberries are quite perishable.

I remember back in the days when we visited HKG often, I always carried back boxes of fresh raspberries and blackberries. At the time, they were just for snacking and quick desserts and parfaits, also for food styling! I was still baking with eggs, mostly quick cookies, brownies and layered cakes, often crumbles. With no Instagram at the time, it was just my blog, Twitter and Pinterest. Cut to now, I’ve gone completely eggfree while baking and you’ll find me mostly on Instagram!

Times have changed. I barely travel now mostly because of the dogs since I can’t bear to leave them even for a day. Bambi is autistic and doesn’t stay without me, and Poppy is too much of a baby and is quite a handful. Both furries have communication problems and they are a 24 hour job. They are quite the sweetest though so I’m not complaining!

Back to the berries, sourcing is always key. I have a good ‘bazaar’ network, one that I’ve built over the years. My local grocery store sometimes gets a batch of really fresh raspberries, mostly in the cooler months. I think they’ve got me on speed dial because they call me the minute the produce hits the store! That’s what happened a couple of months ago and I made this pretty delicious Eggless Chocolate Raspberry Cake.
