week Thirty fouR: Hot + Cold

This is a dessert of contrasts. The name is 'Hot and cold', but could be 'Black and white'. or 'Cream and chocolate'. The mixture is... delicious! Textures, flavors and temperatures combined to delight everyone.
More than a portuguese dessert this is a universal one. Even so, we surprised French and Brazilian friends when 'hot + cold' made its humble appearance at the table!

Week Thirty threE: Angel Hair

Contrary to the usual, the English name of this dessert has much more poetry than the Portuguese name. In Portugal, Angel Hair is simply named as Egg Threads. However, an unimaginative and descriptive name hides a beautiful and delicate dessert. All it takes to cook Angel Hair are water, sugar and eggs. However, to achieve the delicate and thin thread all the ingredients have to be perfectly combine.
The result is delicious and pretty! A fantastic texture, bright yellow, not to sweet, and perfect to decorate and combine with other cakes.

Week Thirty twO: Coconut cake

Coconut reminds me of snow. And while is sunny and warm in San Francisco, it's white and bright in Lake Tahoe! So... everyone is happy, I am enjoying the city and the unique California winter and the others are sliding down the white mountains.
A snowy cake in a sunny San Francisco!
Enjoy the weather!
