- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the parfait will taste. Use fresh fruit, good quality chocolate, and creamy yogurt.
- Don't overpack the parfait glasses: Leave some room at the top of each glass so that the layers can settle and the parfait doesn't become too dense.
