EXPERIENCE #17: EATING A BIG SLICE OF BAKED ALASKA

Now the reason as to why I have never tried baked alaska before I do not know, however I was offered a slice this evening at work and I do believe that it could be the greatest dessert ever!

For those that don’t know, baked alaska is basically meringue, ice cream and spongy goodness all cleverly put together.

The sponge acts as the base, next comes the ice cream that is somehow insulated by the meringue (who the heck came to realize this I do not know) and this stops it from melting when it’s being baked!

I ate it whilst setting up the restaurant for breakfast so every time I came back for a bite it had melted a little more and turned the meringue into a delightful gooey mess.
