Delightful and nutritious: The perfect skyr-raspberry treat
A light dessert with gelatin, skyr, and raspberries is an ideal choice for a refreshing snack. The combination of sweet gelatin, creamy skyr, and raspberries delights with its flavour. Preparation is quick and simple. It's a delicious dessert for any occasion.
Gelatin, raspberries, and skyr are not only tasty ingredients but also sources of many health benefits. Gelatin is rich in collagen, which supports the health of joints, skin, hair, and nails. On the other hand, raspberries are a true treasure trove of vitamins and antioxidants. They are rich in vitamin C, which strengthens immunity, and fibre, which aids digestion. Their intense flavour and aroma blend perfectly with other dessert ingredients. Skyr, originating from Iceland, is a dairy product high in protein and low in fat. It is an excellent source of calcium, essential for healthy bones and teeth.
