Dessert? Anyone? Food Porn, Part III.

It's time for me to show you some mouth watering desserts and make you hungry, or at least drooling 😆 Yes, I know it's cruel of me, but what can I do?

Ok, jokes aside, again, I have to warn you, go eat, have breakfast, lunch, supper, whatever meal is next in line for you, before you read this post, so you don't curse me while looking at the photos.

I'm going to start this post with my lovely Earl Grey tea, which is always a must, no matter where I go and here they had this lovely teabag, with high quality black tea.

I would have this tea any day but without sugar or honey. Black tea with lemon is fine for me.

This was a new dessert, it was on a promotional menu, and was some kind of cheese cake. It wasn't mine, but I was told it tasted great. I'm not a huge fan of cheese cakes, but as inviting and appetizing this looks, I might have one when I am visiting nest time.

Ice cream cup with 3 scoops. Nothing unusual, I suppose you can find a similar dessert anywhere you go, however, the quality of ice cream makes the difference.

What I loved about this ice cream was the combination of chocolate, vanilla and strawberry. What I didn't like was the whipped cream. Yes, I'm the exception. I know everyone loves whipped cream but me, but it's ok.

Esterházy cake. This is a special cake not many of you know. Maybe @mipiano, or at least I hope she has heard of it.

Esterházy torta is a Hungarian cake (torte) named after Prince Paul III Anton Esterházy de Galántha (1786–1866), a member of the Esterházy dynasty and diplomat of the Austrian Empire. It was invented by Budapest confectioners in the late 19th century and soon became one of the most famous cakes in the lands of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy.

Esterházy torta consists of buttercream spiced with cognac or vanilla, sandwiched between four and five layers of almond meringue (macaron) dough. The torte is iced with a fondant glaze and decorated with a characteristic chocolate striped pattern. There are, however, many different recipe variations. In Hungary, the original almonds have been entirely replaced by walnuts. source

It's quite famous in Hungary and a few other countries that were part of Kingdom of Hungary. The first time I had this cake was in Bratislava in 2019, I even posted about it. So when I saw it on the menu, I said I need to taste it and I did. It was according to my expectation, no disappointment there. If you have the occasion to taste it, don't miss it.

This is a well known one in Europe, it is called krémes in Hungarian and cremeschnitte in English. It's one of my favorite cakes and it's been ages since my last one, so I thought let's have one, but to my disappointment, it wasn't great.

20250309_151938a.JPG

A cremeschnitte (German: Cremeschnitte, Hungarian: krémes, Polish: kremówka, napoleonka, Romanian: cremșnit, cremeș, crempita, Bosnian and Serbian: krempita/кремпита, Croatian: kremšnita, Slovak: krémeš, Slovene: kremna rezina, kremšnita), also known as vanilla slice or custard slice, is a custard and chantilly cream cream cake dessert commonly associated with the former Austro-Hungarian Monarchy. However, its origin is most commonly associated with a city in Slovenia known as Bled where it is called "Blejska kremšnita". This dish remains popular across Central Europe and the Balkans in various variations, all of which include a puff pastry base and custard cream. source

Artisanal ice cream specialties. I could not leave without tasting their artisanal ice cream.

The special thing about this ice cream is that you can serve it with four different jams. I picked the rose jam as it's not so common and if I want to be honest, I don't know if I've ever had rose jam. I was told they make their own rose jam, from rose petals harvester from their own garden. They have the edible type growing behind the restaurant, so it's a km 0 product. It was really good.

To finish a nice lunch, I had an Aperol Spritz, with lemon, which is a 200ml drink.

Soooooooooooooooooo, now comes the most important question: what would you have from here? Or better yet, have you ever tasted the cakes I posted about? Let me know in a comment.

Rose jam on ice cream 🤔 man I gotta this one time at least, it'll be floral and sweet I can predict. The Esterházy cake looks amazing. I think I would pick it over whipped cream any day

Don't even mention the calorie intake you are committing with these, but I am only allowing myself such guilty pleasure a few of times.
