Key Lime Pie

Key Lime Pie by Amos Miller

Too early for real, fresh fruit pies here - but Spring brings Key Limes, and that means unbaked Key Lime Pie with a slightly sweetened sour cream topping. I use pasteurized-in-the-shell eggs, so there is no issue with salmonella and I can move the pies from prep to cooler. Saves a load of time and makes a fabulous, flavorful,…

Banana Split Pops

Banana Split Pops by Krystina Castella

This king of pops is based on the classic flavors of a banana split. Traditionally, the banana is split lengthwise, but I put the banana on the pop stick to make it a hidden surprise. Pineapple topping is poured over the vanilla ice cream, chocolate syrup over the chocolate ice cream, and strawberry topping over the strawberry; the…

Mai Tai Pops

Mai Tai Pops by Krystina Castella

East meets west in these Polynesian Mai Tai Pops. Think hula dancers, orchard leis, flaming torches, and some campy tiki fun. If you are really ambitious and want to create pops you won’t find anywhere else, make your own tiki head silicone molds to shape these pops. I like to present these pops on a bed of flowers or individually on…

Honeydew Melon Pops

Honeydew Melon Pops by Krystina Castella

Perfectly ripe honeydew melons are extraordinarily juicy and sweet. For these pops choose melons that have a high water content that are a little overripe. Honeydew is rich in vitamin C and potassium. Try layering the honeydew mixture with the watermelon and cantaloupe variations for beautiful pastel pops.

Pomegranate Apple Pops

Pomegranate Apple Pops by Krystina Castella

In college I had an assignment to choose a fruit and use the structure to inspire a design. I picked the familiar but somewhat boring banana. My friend chose the pomegranate. I had never seen one before and was fascinated by its color, shape, taste, and the number of seeds (I counted almost six hundred). Today, with evidence of the…

Quick Twisted Tofu Raspberry Blue berry Sorbet

Quick Twisted Tofu Raspberry Blue berry Sorbet by Monocot

I call it twisted because Traditional Sorbet is water, sugar and pureed Fruit!. Has barely any fibre if any and no Protein. So I made my own. You don't even need to put this into the freezer. Just blend and serve for a quick dessert.! or a great breakfast! Flax is added at the end for a nice crunch and extra fiber!

Strawberry Banana Limoncello ice-cream delight

Strawberry Banana Limoncello ice-cream delight by Foodessa

The allure of our last local strawberries brought on this breath of simplicity. No cook - No egg ice-cream creation. I figured, first, I'd add banana, especially since it would go a long way to smoothen the mix. Another flavour enhancer would be a little lemon zing. So, why not blend my homemade Limoncello into the fray ;o)…
