Raspberry Semifreddo image

This is a family favourite, found in a Chatelaine magazine. I've served for guests a few times with rave reviews. It's ready in less than a half hour, then just freezing time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my semifreddo turned out icy and not creamy at all. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

I'm not a big fan of raspberries, but I loved this semifreddo. The custard was so creamy and smooth, and the raspberries added a nice tartness.

This semifreddo was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would use less sugar next time.
