Eid Mubarak

Ingredients

• 2 cups Mixed Fresh Fruit (diced; use apple, banana, grapes, kiwi, mango or any seasonal fruit)
• 2 cups Whole Milk (for a richer custard; can substitute with 2% milk)
• 2 tablespoons Custard Powder (vanilla flavored; ensure it is fresh)
• 3 tablespoons Granulated Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 1 cup Sponge Cake or Ladyfingers (cut into bite‑size pieces; store‑bought or homemade)
• 1 cup Heavy Cream (whip to soft peaks with a pinch of sugar)
• 2 tablespoons Chopped Nuts (optional; almonds or pistachios for garnish)
• 1 teaspoon Rose Water (optional, for subtle fragrance)
