Sweet

Biscotti – are twice-baked cakes originating in the Italian city of Prato. The original cakes are large almond biscuits, made dry and crunchy through cutting the loaf of dough while still hot and fresh from baking in the oven. In this segment of the class we will make a basic recipe and using different flavors, fruits and nuts to create our interpretation of this classic dessert.

Apple/Blue Cheese Tart
– Apples and Blue Cheese? Sure why not. In this segment of the class we will demonstrate the different applications of this interesting dessert.

Tiramisu
– literally “pick me up”, is an Italian cake and dessert. It is made of ladyfingers (Italian: Savoiardi) dipped in coffee, layered with a whipped mixture of egg yolks and mascarpone, and flavored with liquor and cocoa. In this class segment we will prepare our version of this classic and show different ways to serve.

Lemon Panna Cotta with Pomegranate Jell – during this segment of the class we will prepare the classic cooked cream dessert and add a twist of merging with a sweet/tart pomegranate jell.

Allow at least 2 hours for this class during which time all of the above will be prepared and shared. The cost is $25.00/person minimum four people. This is an interactive class where you get a hands on experience.

We will have more items listed in the very near future.
