Just reading it I think I'll try and add flavour by susbstituting maple syryp for the sugar (blends well too) and adding lime zest and juice. Have tried those with other raspberry dishes and it's a good combo.

Well, I don't think this would convince a tofu hater. But if you don't mind tofu then this is pretty good. I used splenda instead of sugar and firm silken tofu. It was a pretty color and my 3 year old and I each enjoyed a bowl for breakfast! One minor point, though. Don't try this in a blender. Did not work at all! :)

I added vanilla soymilk to smooth things up a bit and a little bit of powdered sugar. the dish was a pretty bright pink, I garnished the glass with a lime wedge. it was tart and sweet very raspberry. I crumbled some cookies at the bottom and top as well.

followed the directions completely and it was tasteless, added more sugar and vanilla, still blah. a waste of good raspberries, but at least it was a healthy desert.
