CU has a wide assortment of desserts. Now rotating three pastry chefs, there is hardly a waitress who has to resort to, "We're out of that. Sorry." In order of appearance, top left to bottom right: Individual Tiramisu, Bailey's Irish Cream Cheesecake, New York Cheesecake, Black-Bottom Peanut Butter Pie, Turtle Cheesecake.

Can I just say that there's few things sweeter than a slice of fresh, succulent cantaloupe (grown locally, of course) on a warm day? Sometimes you get a bad one....and then the next time, you get a really, really, really good one. That's all. I am still too speechless to say any more.

Light as a feather? I think not.

I just love the way angel food cake fills up your mouth, like a sugary, fluffy sponge. How it seems to melt on contact just like cotton candy. How it's light as a feather, not leaving you feeling full and bloated after consuming it. I decided earlier this week to make an angel food cake today. They had a huge sale on large eggs recently at my neighborhood Publix , so I stocked up. I realized as I pulled out all of the ingredients this morning that I was out of cake flour, cream of tartar, and almond extract. I used all-purpose flour instead (knowing the the higher protein content would make the cake a big heavier), left out the cream of tartar (therefore sacrificing the added security of stablity in my egg whites), and used more vanilla to replace the almond. Not quite sure this one will be very good. At least I have a slurry of homegrown strawberries and blueberries to pour over the top of each slice. Maybe there will be salvation for this low little cake after all.
