• Rice Pudding with Caramelized Pears: Serve the rice pudding with pieces of pear caramelized in butter and sugar for a fruity, indulgent touch.
• Rice Pudding Parfait: Layer rice pudding, whipped cream, and red berries in a glass for an elegant dessert.
• Almond and Chocolate Rice Pudding: Top the cooled rice pudding with dark chocolate shavings and sliced almonds for a chocolatey twist.
• Flambéed Rice Pudding: Just before serving, drizzle a bit of dark rum over the rice pudding and flambé for a spectacular dessert.
• Rice Pudding Cake: Pour the rice pudding into a mold, let it cool, then slice into portions to serve like a cake.
