National Parfait Day

Parfait is a French dessert that typically consists of layers of ice cream, yogurt, or pudding, along with layers of fruit, granola, and/or nuts. The dessert is often served in a tall glass or goblet, allowing the layers to be visible. The word "parfait" actually means "perfect" in French, and the dessert is often considered to be a perfect blend of flavors and textures. In addition to the traditional fruit and yogurt or ice cream layers, other variations of parfait may include layers of cake, custard, whipped cream, or chocolate. Parfait can be made in advance and is often served chilled. It is a popular dessert option for entertaining or for special occasions, but it can also be enjoyed as a sweet treat at any time.
