Steps:
- The day before you plan to serve the pudding, line a 2 quart mixing bowl with plastic wrap. Line the plastic wrap with the white bread slices, trimming to fit so that the pieces fit together neatly. Save enough bread to cover the top of the pudding.
- In a saucepan, combine the apple juice concentrate and all the berries. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook until the strawberries begin to soften, about 1 minute. Turn off the heat immediately.
- Stirring, dissolve the gelatin in the water, then add the mixture to the berries and stir to combine. Spoon into the bread-lined bowl. Cover with remaining bread slices, cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and slightly weight it down. Chill overnight.
- When ready to serve, whip the cream with an electric mixer at high speed until it forms soft peaks.
- Remove the pudding from the refrigerator and remove the plastic wrap. Carefully turn the pudding out onto a platter, remove the bowl and the plastic wrap. Serve in slices with whipped cream on top.

SUMMER PUDDING WITH RUM WHIPPED CREAM
Steps:
- Combine the strawberries, sugar, and 1/4 cup of water in a large saucepan and cook uncovered over medium-low heat for 5 minutes. Add 2 cups of the raspberries and all the blueberries and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reaches a simmer, and simmer for a minute. Off the heat, stir in the remaining raspberries and the framboise.
- Slice the bread in 1/2-inch-thick slices and remove the crusts. In the bottom of a 7 1/2-inch round by 3-inch high souffle or baking dish, ladle about 1/2 cup of the cooked berry mixture. Arrange slices of bread in a pattern (this will become the top when it's unmolded) and then add more berry mixture to saturate. Continue adding bread, cutting it to fit the mold, and berries. Finish with bread and cooked berries, using all of the fruit and syrup.
- Place a sheet of plastic wrap loosely over the pudding. Find a plate approximately the same diameter as the inside of the mold and place it on top. Weight the mold with a heavy can and refrigerate. Remove the weight after 6 to 8 hours. Cover the pudding with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
- Just before serving, run a knife around the outside of the pudding and unmold it upside down onto a serving plate. Serve in wedges with rum whipped cream.
- Whip the cream in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. When it starts to thicken, add the sugar, vanilla, and rum. Continue to whip until it forms stiff peaks. Serve cold.

Steps:
- Add the raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, and sugar to a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the berries have softened but are still mostly intact and the sugar just dissolves. Remove the pan from the heat.
- Strain the berries through a fine-mesh sieve set over a liquid measuring cup. Add water as needed so you have 1½ cups (360 ml) of liquid total. Pour the liquid into a shallow dish. Reserve the fruit and the liquid.
- Trim the crusts off the bread. Cut the bread in half down the middle.
- Line a 2-quart bowl with enough plastic wrap to hang over the edges at least 4 inches (10 cm) all around.
- Dip a half slice of bread at a time in the reserved berry juice, then line the sides of the wrapped bowl, overlapping slightly. Some slices can hang over the side of the bowl. Line the center of the bowl once the sides are covered.
- Spoon the reserved berries into the center of the lined bowl. Fold the bread over the berries, then dip the remaining bread in the berry juice and cover the center, overlapping slightly. Pour any remaining juice over the pudding.
- Cover the pudding with the plastic wrap. Place a small plate on top and weigh down with a can. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, up to overnight.
- When ready to serve, remove the plate and the can and peel back the plastic. Place a serving platter over the bowl and quickly flip both the bowl and platter over to invert the pudding. Remove the bowl and plastic wrap.
- Top the pudding with the whipped cream, more berries, and fresh mint leaves. Slice and serve.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Line the bottom of a 2- to 2 1/2-quart bowl with bread, tearing bread as necessary to completely cover bottom without overlapping. Halve remaining bread slices lengthwise. Line sides of bowl with overlapping bread slices (reserve some for covering the top); trim bread flush with top of bowl.

Place a round dish or pan slightly smaller than the diameter of the bowl on top of bread, and press down on plate until juices rise to surface. Place a heavy can or other weight on top of plate. Transfer to refrigerator and let chill at least 12 hours and up to 1 day.

Stir together mascarpone and cream in a bowl until smooth, then whisk to soft peaks. Cut pudding into wedges and serve with whipped mascarpone cream.
SUMMER PUDDING WITH RUM WHIPPED CREAM
This is another recipe from Barefoot Contessa and they are old recipes and I am afraid of losing them. She cooks with such ease and "je ne sait pas quois!" Everything seems effortless! If you don't make this in the summer(up North and West) the price would be too, too steep -- as it is the berries are pricey. Let it stay in the refrigerator overnight.

Steps:
- Remove the crusts from the bread. Arrange the slices, trimming them to shape where necessary, to line the inside of a two-quart mixing bowl completely. Reserve enough remaining bread to cover the top.
- Place one cup of the sugar in a heavy saucepan over low heat and stir in the lemon juice. When the sugar has dissolved, gently stir in the berries and cook just until they have started giving up their juices, about 5 minutes. The berries should be soft but still hold their shape and be in a rich purplish syrup. Taste the syrup and, if necessary, add additional sugar.
- Use a slotted spoon to transfer the berries to the bread-lined bowl. Pour all but one-half cup of the syrup over the berries. The bowl should be nearly full. Cover the top with the reserved bread, then place a piece of plastic wrap loosely over the top.
- Put a china plate that will fit into the bowl on top, then weight it down with something heavy like a two-pound can of tomatoes. Some of the juices will begin to ooze up.
- Place the weighted pudding in the refrigerator at least eight hours. Refrigerate the reserved syrup as well.
- Just before serving run a knife around the inside of the bowl and unmold the pudding onto a plate that has enough of a rim to catch any excess syrup. Use the reserved syrup to paint any places where the syrup has not completely soaked through the bread. Serve with whipped cream on the side.

ORANGE CREAMSICLE SUMMER PUDDING RECIPE BY TASTY
This take on an Italian-inspired summer pudding features the nostalgic flavors of orange creamsicle. We dip ladyfingers in an orange juice and gelatin mixture and arrange them around a bowl to create a dome, which we fill with a light and refreshing mixture of mascarpone cheese, whipped cream cheese, orange zest, orange liqueur, and mandarin orange segments. Serve with whipped cream, more mandarin oranges, and a sprig of mint for a pop of color!

Steps:
- Make the orange mascarpone cream: In a small bowl, combine the cold water and gelatin, stirring with a fork to dissolve and break up any clumps. Let the gelatin bloom for 5 minutes, until the water is mostly absorbed. Microwave for 15-20 seconds, or until the gelatin is melted.
- Add the cream cheese to a large bowl. Beat with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until smooth, 1-2 minutes. Add the mascarpone, granulated sugar, orange zest, lemon juice, vanilla, orange liqueur, and heavy cream and mix until light and fluffy, 3-4 minutes. Add the melted gelatin and mix until combined, about 1 minute. Add the mandarin orange slices and gently fold with a rubber spatula until evenly incorporated. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Make the ladyfinger soak: Line a 2-quart bowl with enough plastic wrap to hang over the edges by at least 4 inches (10 cm) all around. Spray the plastic wrap with nonstick spray.
- In a medium heatproof bowl, combine the orange gelatin powder and boiling water. Whisk until the gelatin is mostly dissolved, 1-2 minutes. Add the orange juice and stir to combine.
- Submerge 3 ladyfingers at a time in the orange juice mixture for 30-40 seconds, until the ladyfingers absorb the mixture, but not so long that the cookies begin to dissolve. Arrange the soaked ladyfingers on the bottom and up the sides of the prepared bowl, leaving 3 ladyfingers unsoaked for the final assembly. Scoop the orange mascarpone cream over the ladyfingers in the bowl and smooth the top. Dip the remaining ladyfingers in the soaking liquid and place over the center of the cream.
- Fold the ladyfingers around the edges of the bowl over the cream. (If the ladyfingers are too stiff to fold over easily, use kitchen shears to trim each ladyfingers flush with the orange mascarpone cream, then lay the trimmed pieces on the cream where they would fold over).
- Cover the pudding with another sheet of plastic wrap. Place a small plate on top and weigh down with a can. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, up to overnight.
- When ready to serve the pudding, remove the plate and the can and peel back the plastic. Place a serving platter over the bowl and quickly flip both the bowl and platter over to invert the pudding. Remove the bowl and plastic wrap.
- Top the pudding with whipped cream and garnish with the mandarin oranges and mint leaves. Slice and serve.
- Enjoy!
INSTANT PUDDING WHIPPED CREAM
It is a versatile frosting without the to-sweet flavor. Works well for decorating and piping. Also a good cake filling. On top of all that, it's super simple. Great for ice cream cakes. More stable that plain whipped cream frosting.

Steps:
- Using separate saucepans, cook the berries with one-half cup sugar each for five minutes, or until soft.
- Line a two-and-a-half quart pudding bowl with the bread slices, leaving no gaps in between for the juices to run out. Put in a layer of the raspberry mixture, then the blueberry and blackberry, alternating until the bowl is full. Do not pour in all the fruit juice; reserve it to patch up any white spots on the bread later.
- Cover the pudding with the remaining bread and top with a plate that just fits inside the bowl. Put weights on top and refrigerate at least six hours, until an hour before you're ready to eat.
- Turn the pudding upside down onto a round serving dish. Patch up any white spots with the remaining fruit juice. Decorate with berries and serve. Pass the cream separately.
