Notes

These parfaits can easily be made vegan. Use vegan ice cream and non-dairy milk instead of dairy-based products.

If you have food allergies in the house (or if people in your household aren't into blackberries or pineapples), substitute the fruits for other blue or yellow fruit. Blueberries, mangos and bananas would make good substitutes here.
