trifle : strictly experimental !
bejewelled* experimented on a new jewel the other day. well, not exactly new but just that this is how the original trifle should look like. bejewelled*'s traffic light trifle has been modified from its original form. this trifle is assembled in a glass where it is a dessert you actually scoop it out and off it goes into the mouth...YUM! a layer of cake at the bottom followed by a layer of smooth and creamy custard, a layer of fruits (we used canned apricots and peaches plus water melon to give that great col
our combination) and custard...basically, it's a repetition of the layers...when the dessert of done, the colour was a bit off...something was missing...we figured a hint of green would do the trick. water melon skin was sliced thinly as garnish to finish off the masterpiece...what do you think? did that do the trick?

tiramisu : form of a cake
during the month of march, bejewelled* designed a tiramisu that comes in the form of a cake for a dear friend's birthday! strawberries and canned stuffed rambutan with pineapples were used to topped this dessert to achieve a great colour combination making the dessert even more enticing! isn't it just pretty?
a different approach on the usual feature...this time round, bejewelled* would just like to add something extra - a point to ponder...actually, it's more like the origin of certain desserts and facts...well, bejewelled* is indeed all about dessert...so, why not learn something extra on the desserts that make us drool...
Tiramisu is an Italian dessert typically made from Lady Fingers, espresso coffee, mascarpone cheese, eggs, cream, sugar, marsala wine, cocoa, and rum. The Italian name tiramisù means "pick-me-up" (metaphorically, "Make me happy", although it could have a more sexual meaning), referring to the two caffeine-containing ingredients, espresso and cocoa.
The Lady Fingers are sprinkled with or briefly soaked in a mixture of the coffee, rum, and sugar. They are then layered with a mixture of mascarpone cheese and a custard made from egg yolks, marsala, and sugar, known as zabaglione. Cocoa powder is then sprinkled on top.
There is some debate regarding the history of tiramisu. Some believe it was first created during the First World War. Women in northern Italy made these desserts for their men to take with them as they were being sent off to war, presumably to remind them of their love together, as the bitter-sweet taste of the dessert alludes to the perplexing feeling of love itself. Or more practically, they might have believed the high caffeine and energy content of these desserts give their men more energy to fight and help bring them home safely.
Another story regarding tiramisu dates back even further. It is said that during the Renaissance periods, Venetian women made these to be shared with their men during the late hours because they believed it would give them the energy to make more vigorous love later. A different take on this story is that Venetian prostitutes, living above cafés, would order this as a late night pick-me-up.
A less glamorous theory explains that the dessert was a way of salvaging old cake and coffee that had gone cold by using the leftover coffee and perhaps some liqueur to moisten the stale cake. The dish was greatly improved by layering it with cream or cream cheese.
Still others claim that the dessert is a recent invention, creating a trendy demand that will not last long. They point out that while the recipes and histories of other layered desserts are very similar, the first documented mention of tiramisu in a published work appears in an Italian cookbook. Backing up this story is that the author of the cookbook explained in an earlier article that tiramisu was created in 1971 (actually "10 years ago" in the article, which was written in 1981) in the restaurant Le Beccherie, and the owners of Le Beccherie do indeed claim they invented the recipe.
