Step 1

This recipe calls for frozen fruit but I don't see why you couldn't substitute fresh, especially since it'll be in season.

Step 2

In medium saucepan combine gelatin and sugar; stir in water and egg yolks.

Step 3

Cook and stir till gelatin is dissolved and thickened. Cool to room temperature. Beat egg whites till stiff peaks form (tips stand straight).

Step 4

Fold in gelatin mixture. Beat the 1 1/2 cups whipping cream till soft peaks form; do not overbeat. Fold into gelatin mixture. Divide mixture into 3 equal portions (about 2 cups each). Lightly fold pureed raspberries into one portion, the pureed peaches into another portion, and the lime juice and green food colouring, if desired, into the remaining portion.

Step 5

Pour lime mixture into a 6 1/2 or 7 cup glass bowl. Carefully spoon peach layer atop lime mixture. Then, carefully spoon berry layer atop. Cover and chill for at least 4 to 6 hours or till firm.

Step 6

To serve, spoon whipped cream into a pastry bag filled with a decorative tip; pipe atop the chilled mixture and garnish with cookies (the rolled kind that look like little tubes).
