Delicious. I was using what I had so I was not able to add strawberries this time. I used the fresh blueberries and raspberries, a little less tapioca starch in place of cornstarch to be corn free, Allens apple juice, plus the sugar and served them with homemade vanilla yogurt. Made for ZWT7 Switzerland, for my team Food.Commandos

Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe Paula. Sometimes the best tasting are the simplest to make. This delightful dish, was very quick and easy to make. I used fresh ripe berries and was not disappointed. It was tart and sweet, with a silky glaze. I served it plain and did not miss a topping. I will be making this refreshing, treat often. :)

I came to this site in March of 2004. It was then called Recipezaar. This site was the first on-line site that I ever joined. I first popped in 2003 while searching for a Peach Cobbler Recipe. In March of 2004, DH was having shoulder surgery and I was looking for a Split Pea Soup. Once again I found myself on Zaar as it came to be called.
Over the years I hung out and learned from some of the best home cooks in the country, I posted over 700 recipes on the site, reviewed over 3500 recipes and posted over 3000 food photos. Over the next 10 years the site made many changes and in 2010 it was sold to to Food Network and became Food.com.
Until last year we played games, talked and shared with one another. As a result of the community and the relationships I built I got to meet some wonderful people from all over the country. I also have a great number of friends that I have never meet face to face. Some of us still hang out at various places across the net.
Zaar was more than a cooking community. It was an internet community of friendship. Life is an adventure ever changing.
