"A delicious looking dessert from Sugar Free Cooking. VARIATIONS - Use strawberries or peaches in place of the apricots. SERVING IDEA - Serve decorated with twisted strips of orange peel and a crisp biscuit if liked. Please allow for chill and setting times which would be about 4 hours at a guess."
