Summery Fruit Flan

Again, all photography by my genius sister.

 If time is not on your side then this is perfect. It dresses to impress but takes under ten minutes to do. It's awesome! Other pro's are that it's economical, low on the calories and nutritious. If you are planning to travel with it for a summer picnic or something synonymous then put the flan on the lid of a airtight container and then the container over it. Simples. (Just ensure that you continue to carry it upside-down!)
 These pre-made flan dishes can be found in the baking section of most supermarkets so keep an eye out.

And here's one I prepared earlier..

All you need.

 Time: Minutes

 Serves: 8-10

 RECIPE: 

 1) Dump a whole 600ml pot of double cream in a mixer with a whisk attachment, sieve two tablespoons of icing sugar into it and let it whir for about five minutes or until it starts to look light and fluffy. Meanwhile, melt 6-8 squares of chocolate with a splash of milk in a glass bowl over some simmering water but don't let the water touch the bowl. When the chocolate has melted, let it cool slightly and then pour it over your flan base evenly. Fridge your cream and flan while you prepare your fruit and then arrange as you will. Shave over some chocolate and that's that!

Really go to town with the chocolate!

 So there it is, how easy can it get? Incredible. The fruit you use is completely up to you, use your imagination and be creative. Sliced kiwi and grapes also work a treat but be as exotic as you like. There are loads of fruits out there so here is a chance to show off to your friends and family your knowledge of them. 
 The key to these really is the presentation and how to display the fruit so, again, be creative. For instance, I did a 'birthday-cake' type thing for my younger brother. His nickname is 'Cap' obtained from Captain America. (I'm Iron Man as apparently I'm volatile, self-obsessed and don't play well with others. I know, you tell me!) Anyhow, I used one of these flans to do a Captain America shield as you can see (or not) from the pictures. However, I chickened out from doing the star in the end and stated that it was an "interactive gift". In other words, he would do the star. It turned out pretty well in the end actually but let me know what you think in some comments and don't forget to check out YourBlog! right here.
