Chocolate pistachio

Speaking of desserts Susie is back to bringing tons of them home.

During her first week back at Le Cordon Bleu, and now deep into the superior level of the diplome de patisserie, she brought home the following:

"Baba", a yeast cake soaked in rum and fruit syrup;

"Tart creole", a basic tart crust layered with sponge cake and cocanut mousse topped with pineapple and meringue;

"Mango-Raspberry creme cake";

And then yesterday, Friday, she brought home a "chocolate pistachio surprise" -- and boy was I ever!

Check it out:




So our frezzer is jammed pack with desserts -- and she has justed started! And this coming Monday is apparently cookie day. . .

Anyway, if you're in the neighborhood and need something to eat, drop by. To paraphrase Henny Youngman, "Take my dessert, Please!"

Wish you were here,

Steve
