sounds interesting, what is it? how do you serve it? Somehow I am imaging in a shot glass or a tea cup?
I am actually looking for some new mini dessert ideas for an upcoming event. I saw some great edible spoons being used recently. I am thinking of doing a sweet version of that with flavored mousses (passionfruit, chocolate, chocolate chili, etc) piped on. I have noticed alot of sweet and spicy combinations lately.
Filet Biscuits seem to appeal to men alot. Filet Mignon in mini biscuits with red pepper pesto and fresh basil or arugula. Sounds expensive but a little bit goes along way.
Low carb options:
cucumber crowns topped with: -- eggplant mousse
-- strips of filet (or pork or lamb even)
tossed in a soy ginger glaze with cilantro, mint, confetti of colored peppers - call it jewels of siam -
-- piped with wasabi pate (cream cheese, touch of marscapone & wasabi) and dabbed with salmon caviar
Mini Samosas with Cilantro Coconut Chutney - spicy but almost everyone seems to love them - the spice doesnt overwelm.
Tandoori Lamb Lollipops - expensive but a bit more than an h-d, less than an entree
Short Plates, Mini Entrees, Passing on Spoons, Shot Glasses, Asian Takeout Boxes, All very current trends.
