Step 1
Fill a medium saucepan with 500 ml of water and add 100 grams of granulated sugar. Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir until the sugar is fully dissolved to create a simple syrup.
Step 2
Bring the syrup to a gentle simmer. While waiting, cut the peaches in half and remove the pits.

In a blender, combine 150 grams of fresh raspberries and 30 grams of powdered sugar. Blend until smooth.
Step 5
Strain the raspberry puree through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove the seeds. Set the sauce aside.

To assemble the sundaes, place two peach halves in each serving bowl or glass. Add two scoops of vanilla ice cream on top.

Drizzle the raspberry sauce generously over the ice cream and peaches.
