Description
This was a display in one of the hotels where I stayed while visiting the Philippines.
Dessert (/dɪˈzɜːrt/) is a course that concludes a meal; oftentimes an evening meal. The course usually consists of sweet foods, such as confections dishes or fruit, and possibly a beverage such as dessert wine or liqueur, but may include coffee, cheeses, nuts, or other savory items. In some parts of the world, such as much of central and western Africa, and most parts of China, there is no tradition of a dessert course to conclude a meal.
The term "dessert" can apply to many confections, such as biscuits, cakes, cookies, custards, gelatins, ice creams, pastries, pies, puddings, and sweet soups, and tarts. Fruit is also commonly found in dessert courses because of its naturally occurring sweetness. Some cultures sweeten foods that are more commonly savory to create desserts.
Liquor/Spirit: an alcoholic product that's made from a grain- or fruit/vegetable-derived sugar that's fermented and distilled, yielding a lower water content and higher ABV. Liqueur: made from liquor, sweetened and often flavored.
