![]() The big cookie is called a financier. It is similar to both a cake and cookie. It is plated with strawberries covered
in a chocolate sauce and the right side is a Riesling gelee (a formed
ball made with a gel of Riesling wine) topped with sliced raspberries. The
lace bowl is actually a cookie called a Tulip cookie which I formed
into a bowl while it was still warm and it sets in the shape when it
cools. Then I made a Mango sorbet and put a big scoop inside the bowl
and garnished with a mint leaf. Then there is a spoon on the plate
which is another very thin cookie which I spread the batter over a
stencil and baked. Then I placed some chocolate sauce drops on the
plate, arranged some thin sliced strawberries and placed the spoon
cookie (tuile batter) on the plate in front of the bowl anchored by the
chocolate sauce and placed a little more mango sorbet on the spoon.

This is a desert table I set up with 3 varieties of my deserts. Strawberry slices with pastry cream topped with fresh whipped cream and crumbled up tulip cookies. Chocolate mousse topped with crumbled chocolate. Fudge brownie plated with pastry cream and strawberry sauce. |
