tiny bubbles....

The assignment for todays test was to create a dessert for any holiday. I went with Valentine's Day and this is what I came up with....
Behind that chocolate band (I need to work on doing the band perfectly) is a white chocolate bavarian cake. There is a thin layer of flourless chocolate cake on the bottom, fresh strawberries and white chocolate bavarian filling in the mold. Since it is a Valentine's dessert, I came up with a champagne sorbet laying on a bed of strawberries. Yummy.
The sauces are a creme anglaise and strawberry coulis. And then there are chocolate garnishes for the lucky Valentine. Ain't I a sweetheart....
