What is the most attractive dessert?

Panna cotta

Triple chocolate terrine, which is something I make quite often when we have people over for dinner.

I also get asked to make my duet of rosewater and orange panna cotta with pistachio crumble.

Sperhoeven Krispies. You hold your nose with one hand and you pop a krispy in your mouth in the other: tastes like cheesecake, fresh strawberries and chocolate ice cream.

Mille-feuille? Why not go full Napoleon?

Fruit tarts are so pretty and tasty!

Esterházy cake. Looks as delicious as it tastes.

If is not flaming is not attactive enough

Quartz Cake

La Sphere from Joel Rubichon, Vegas

Parfait of passionfruit, mandarin orange and chocolate

Chocolate Jewels

Howard Johnson orange sherbet.

Mango sorbet with vanilla yogurt parfait

I’m more into snacks.

Pavlova

Feuerwehrkuchen!

The dunk is essential.

Swedish Princess Cake, but only because I could not find a decent picture of the Dresden Porzellantorte.

Whatever happened to him?

For awhile he had Tout Sweet, a patisserie in Macy's Stockton Street store but it's no longer there.

r22 Is that a variation of ABC or ice kacang?

I wish they would bring back Just Desserts. I loved that and the Zumbo show on Netflix.

Japanese nerikiri

Japanese water cake

Roasted prickly pear pads with good stuff on top.

Since we have no idea what those look like, how can they be the most attractive?

My Kwanzaa cake

Jollibee halo halo

Wow, that's amazing, R26. Habe you tried it, how does it taste?

Opera Cake

Lemon and chocolate doberge cake.

[quote] Wow, that's amazing, [R26]. Habe you tried it, how does it taste?

Not r26, but I hear it basically tastes like water. It’s mostly unflavored, clear gelatin. But it’s stunning to look at.

Champagne cake from the Madonna Inn, San Luis Obispo.

Trump cake when you NAILED IT.

r23 I heard he went to rehab for meth last year. Not sure if he is clean now.

Boccone Dolce:

For fuck's sake, Bruce, why would you slap his croquembouche?

If you've never seen it, 18:58 to 19:18.

Mont Blanc Cake. (There's a similar Italian version called Montebianco.)

eatable flowers

Another vote for the Napoleon, but with a picture that's prettier to me.

This.

Spanische Windtorte.

I just saw the Opera Cake at R37 and am retiring from the competition.

However, for a simpler but very delightful-looking homemade cake, I still submit for your consideration: Battenburg Cake

A bakery in Tokyo has this apple cake available in both green and red.

Mary I am sure you do!

I am loving this thread!

My favorite. Black forest cake.

That's beautiful, R46!

I have posted this before, "Le Bombe Richelieu". Ideally, my last meal...

More from Japan.

Here’s a favourite I can whip up with plenty a notice!

Japanese white strawberry tart made with a specially bred type of white strawberries with red seeds

I know Pride Month is over ...

How would you react to seeing this at your next dinner party?

Or this?

One word, R56: [italics][bold]SECONDS![/italic][/bold]

I have no idea what this is (the description is in Russian) but it's gorgeous.

Served at all DL official functions.

Sakura jelly. A lot of the preparations look like a muddle or something a blue woman would try to serve to James Kirk.

But from a cone mold, a hint of flower peeking through, it is most beautiful.

Are there fans of Lady M? Their green tea mille crêpes is amazing!

In the right hands, the South Asian falooda can be beautiful.

Hand painted macarons

In their own quirky way I find funnel cakes quite beautiful, and no two are ever alike.

Now THAT'S funny!

Golden Snitch

Sorry, folks, my reply at R58 went about as well as Christmas 1996.

While the chocolate-glazed croquembouche upthread certainly looks as delicious as can be, I prefer the plain lines of the classic version pictured here. It was the first thing that came to mind.

For r68/Mrs. Patsy Ramsey, formerly of Boulder, CO.

American butter Christmas cookies decorated by real kids without any frau finishings.

Stained glass Chanukah cookies.

Simnel Cake

Very attractive, snackable mini-cakes.

The pale thick gelatinous marzipan on that Simnel Cake looks like _____.

OP's pic looks like string cheese in-between slices of wasa bread.

Dump cake!

Baked Alaska

Actually, r77, that doesn't look half bad. Do you know what's in it?

Looks like a cobbler. Put blueberries, sugar and a little flour in a casserole dish, cover it in biscuit dough and bake. Delish!

"Delish!"? Ugh. Now who's gonna want to eat it?

Not the most attractive, perhaps, but my favourite ...

Having grown up in NY, as a kid Charlotte Rouses were simple and delicious. I don't think they exist any longer.

Camel Toe!
