- Place in a food processor with the boysenberries and blend until it is a smooth puree
- Pass the puree through a sieve to remove the boysenberries seeds
- Relax the gelatine in the water and then heat to dissolve

- Custard Method: Heat the cream and milk with the vanilla in a pot until just simmering
- Whisk together the egg yolks, honey (or sugar) and cornflour until well combined and pale in colour
- Once the cream/milk is hot pour over the egg mixture in a steady stream whilst continuously whisking
- Pour the custard back into the pot and cook on low, whisking constantly until the custard is thickened
- Pour the custard into a dish and place cling film or baking paper directly on top to prevent a skin from forming
- Allow the custard to cool slightly before refrigerating until cold

- Cut the cake and jelly up into cubes and place into the bowl or individual glasses with dollops of the custard, extra fresh boysenberries and whipped cream
