This was Alex's Birthday cake many years ago and we had fun substituting and  testing this recipe with some Asian ingredients and our then current dessert wine.

Warm Chestnut, Ricotta and Apple Pudding Encased in Coffee and Cardamom Soaked Savoiardi Biscuits with Eggnog Spiced Custard

Serve with 2008 Bloodwood Noble Riesling

 

I prefer to have the lighter Crème Caramel rather than a pumpkin Crème Brule, especially after all that meat! This dessert is easy to prepare beforehand. The caramelised sugar becomes saucy while these little pumpkin desserts chillout in the fridge.

Serve with Bloodwood's 2013 Silk Purse.

A delightful dessert, further contributing to your guests' very good health and spring zing.

Check lavatories for aberrations.

 

Our rhubarb is growing well now in spring so it's a treat to use it.

This dessert is too rich for our just released 2015 dessert wine. But if you still have some 2013 Silk Purse it has a similar palate weight needed to balance this dessert.

After all this food, dessert needs to be something miniscule and light, and it couldn't get much simpler than this.

Being young, fresh and light our new dessert wine is best with fresh fruit, such as strawberries, raspberries, mangos, passionfruit and stone fruits when they appear ~ great for summer and for Christmas time too!

Cheeses that work with it now are also required to be young and fresh, e.g. goat’s curd, or quark and ricotta with some lemon rind mixed through.

Added sugar in desserts can easily overpower this wine at this stage in its development. It's a keeper and will get richer bodied as it ages, when you'll be very well rewarded for your patience.

For the Cha Cha Cha of desserts it’s coconut cake and custard all the way, with lime jelly, fresh raspberries and mango, all in a wine glass (these are many of 'Rene's favourite things!).

This could even qualify as a dairy-free dessert. The measurements are generous enough for 8.

Who doesn't love splices of sorbet and ice cream! 

Pisces people especially do, given they usually skip the main show and head straight for the dessert.

However even Pisces don’t do dreamt desserts...
