    Lactose Free dessert ideas for a party?

    So I'm toying with a fruit tart of some sort with custard made from lactose free milk but was wondering if any of you lovely ladies had any other suitable ideas for a dessert large enough for a party that doesn't have any lactose?

    You can make cheesecake from Tofutti (vegan cream cheese), using Nuttulex and lactose free biscuits as the base?

    Cake using no dairy or dairy subsitutes?

    I made awesome vegan brownies once. You could serve it with lactose free icecream or make a creme fraiche using Tofutti and lemon juice?

    Baklava? There was a thread on this recently.....yummmmmmm

    Pavlova/Meringues served with fruit

    Something with marshmallows (I'm pretty sure they have no dairy but I may be wrong)

    Depending on the type of party as you'd need bowls and spoons for this.........Sticky Rice Pudding with Mango (a Thai dessert, the pudding is made with special rice from the Asian supermarket and coconut cream - soooooo good particularly in this summer weather)

    If you google Vegan desserts you should find heaps. I know you don't specifically need it to be vegan but you can always substitute the vegan alternative for non-vegan except for the dairy. I have found that searching for vegan comes up with wayyyy better stuff than just lactose free. There are some really yummy yummy vegan desserts out there.

    Our house is dairy free, so we only have dairy free desserts... You can use nuttelex as an alternative to butter and rice milk as an alternative to milk. I do almost all normal desserts. Pies, fruit pies and instead of cream or something you can use coconut creams. I do pavlovas all the time but put banana and a dark dairy free chocolate drizzled on top. It's yum and slightly off normal.
