For Raspberry yoghurt & coconut dip
Line a sieve with a muslin or new chux cloth and place over a bowl. Spoon the yoghurt into the sieve, fold the muslin over the yoghurt to cover. Refrigerate 1-2 hours or longer if you have time. Spoon the thickened yoghurt into a clean bowl. Swirl through the jam and coconut. Spoon into ramekins. Serve with apple slices.

For Carrot cream cheese and macadamia dip

For Sesame maple ricotta dip

Tip Removing the excess moisture from the yoghurt makes the dip thick as well as really creamy.
