Cold Desserts, Day 6

1. Today was a warm dessert day (part of the the class it to make desserts that are traditionally served with ice cream). We started by making apple crisps. They were very simple, just sauteed apples and strusel. We baked them is metal molds, so that they could be unmolded and platted. We didn't plate them, instead we gave them to the class next door to use. They just had to slide the metal off, and you can see the apples are exposed.

These look pretty messy, beacuse as they cooked the juice became very caramelized.

2. Next up was cobbler. We chose to do a cherry filling flavored with almond and topped with cream scones. We made extra scone dough, so we baked it off and ate scones with honey for breakfast. When the crisp was finished, we took it next door and served it with ice cream to other pastry students.



3. Finally, our group maned the ice cream cart again today. We went up to the culinary floor, and had a steady stream of people for about an hour.
