red velvet, blueberry, green tarragon, liquorice, lavender, pine


Red velvet sponge, Blueberry ice cream with licorice, tarragon ice, lavender, young pine needle.

This may be the best dessert i have made thus far. it is visually stunning (except for my poor quality camera work) and its taste is complex and delicious. the natural anis flavor in the tarragon complimenting the subtle liquorice in the ice cream. and the pine needle is slightly astringent sour, bitter. There is powdered cap n crunch in the bottom helping to steady the quenelle on ice cream also adding textural contrast.  My only adjustment would be adding a crunch element, maybe some for of tuile.
