The sight of an artistically layered parfait is a treat for the sore eyes, as well as a great source of hydration during the sizzling summer days.

Parfait, which in French means "perfect" is one gorgeous treat the heart desires during summer. The decadent dessert is prepared in tall glasses and made by layering several ingredients ranging from granola, whipped cream and strawberry.

Whatever add-ons or treats one uses to whip up a glass of parfait, the sweet confection is blissfully indulgent with a creamy depth.
