Instructions
 

In a blender, combine the fresh raspberries, honey (or maple syrup), and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth, ensuring to leave some raspberry chunks for added texture and bursts of flavor.

        Next, spoon a layer of the raspberry mixture on top of the yogurt layer, spreading it gently to cover evenly. Follow this with another layer of the yogurt mixture.

          Continue this layering process, alternating between the yogurt and raspberry mixtures, until the molds are filled to the top. Ensure to create beautiful swirls of the raspberry sauce throughout for visual appeal.
