Pictured above is a Mimosa created with our ChocoBlanka, Orange Puree, and your favorite Champagne. Disolve 1 Ounce of our ChocoBlanka with 1 ounce or more of orange puree in the bottom of your glass. You can make this ahead then add just about half the Champagne and stir. Top the glass off and add your preferred garnish. Of course you can adjust this recipe anyway you like adding more or less Champagne, ChocoBlanka or Orange puree.

Creating Our Banana’s Foster Silk

Posted on by SeattleSilk (a division of Alaska Silk Pie Co.)

I’m sure many of you have had the Banana’s Foster prepared table side at finer restaurants and it’s OH SO YUMMMMY….well….ours is prepared in the same way only using 40 LBS of organic banana’s, sweet unsalted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, a hint of fresh lemon juice to balance the sweetness, and of course…..it wouldn’t be Banana’s Foster without just the right amount of Meyers Dark Rum.

In most fine restaurants Banana’s Foster is served on a French Vanilla ice cream so we have recreated that flavor profile using our white chocolate (ChocoBlanca) silk base and a wonderful 4 fold pure vanilla and vanilla beans.  We have placed our vanilla silk mousse on a gluten free shortbread crust and finished it with our Fostered Banana’s.

Here are the banana’s that we use and a visual of how we do it;

Here you have all the steps to make a delicious Banana’s Foster using our Seattle Silk ChocoBlanca, Organic Banana’s, Heavy Cream, Butter, Brown Sugar, Cinnamon, Lemon Juice, and of course Meyers Dark Rum.  Just add the crust of your choice or not.  This dessert is great just served in a beautiful piece of stem ware that you would have right there in your bar.  This dessert can be made ahead and frozen to be served at a later date.

REMEMBER….you are only restricted by your own imagination!
