Instructions

Make the crepes:
    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine all the ingredients together in a blender. Blend until smooth.
  2. Cover and let sit for 1-2 hours in the refrigerator.
  3. When ready to make the crepes, remove batter from fridge.
  4. Use a wooden spoon and stir the mixture.
  5. Divide the batter into 6 equal portions (about 100g each) in 6 individual bowls.
  6. Mix the corresponding Supercolor powders to colour each bowl individually from red to purple. Strain each coloured batter through a sieve before pouring into the frying pan.
  7. Heat up a small 5″ frying pan and grease with a little oil.
  8. Pour about 2 tablespoon of batter into 5″ frying pan.
  9. Let it cook over low heat, about 1-2 minutes, flip, and continue cooking for another minute.
  10. Remove to a wire rack to cool.
  11. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  12. Ensure crepes are completely cool before stacking upon each other.
  13. Note: Each coloured batter should produce about 4 x 5" crepes.
Make whipped cream:
  1. In a chilled bowl, add the heavy cream, sugar, vanilla and whisk until stiff peaks.
To assemble:
  1. Starting with the purple crepes, lay one crepe on a plate and place 1 tablespoon of whipped cream on top.
  2. Smooth the surface with a spatula and lay another crepe on top.
  3. Repeat with the remainder of the crepes, moving through the colours.
  4. Place into the fridge to set for at least 4-6 hours before serving.
  5. Serve chilled.
