Travels in the South

If happiness had to be explained in a picture – well there you go.  This is one of mom’s all time favorite desserts.  I know – I know.  Has there ever been a dessert that mom has turned her back to?  Of course not.  But this one she said is exceptional.

Right now the current thing for deserts are those molten lava cakes.  This is one of those with a twist.  The inside of this cake is filled with caramel.  Then the topping is ice cream.  All of the dusting around the plate and on top – that would be salted caramel.  Go ahead.  I’ll give you a moment to ooh and aaw.

Mom says it’s very sweet but when you need something straight up with some extra special kick, go for this treat… the salted caramel lava cake.

 

Travels in the South

Welcome my friends to another edition of Travels in the South.

Knowing that last week was difficult for the mommy in getting done a lot of things at work, mom/dad took time out for a little tender loving care in the form of sweet pleasures. They went to a local restaurant just for a little just desserts.  May we introduce you to a Molten Salted Caramel Cake.  Oh my friends, dad says that mom made sounds he hasn’t heard in a long time.  I’m not sure what he meant by that – snorts with piggy laughter.

This creation is a salted caramel cake filled with melted yummy caramel.  So when you cut into the cake, that wonderful caramel spreads everywhere – can you say yummy?  Then the cake is topped with vanilla ice cream, more caramel sauce and salted caramel pieces.  Now personally I don’t know how good this was but mommy came home happy and in a great mood.  She also said that if you crave a salt/sweet combination, this is for you.  Dad says it kind of taste like pancakes and syrup.  Now, that I can relate to – snorts with piggy laughter.

So there you go my friends.  Another awesome contribution to Travels in the South.  Have you eaten something amazing lately?
