My wonderful friends and family are in
celebration mode now that Delightfully Free is here.
The other night, a few of us
got together for dinner, excitedly exchanging stories about the
different people who we have been able to share the cookbook with.
After a yummy (and need I say, healthy GF, DF) dinner and it was time for dessert, my sweet and
amazing cousin Debbie pulled out her magnum opus. It was, of course,
GF, DF and refined SF (we can check those boxes), but, it was so
much more as you can see!
Made entirely from fresh fruit, this colorful “cake”
took old school “fruit cake” to a whole new level. The core of
the cake was a sweet, juicy watermelon, cut in the shape of a two
layer cake. Kiwi, blueberries, green grapes and tangerine sections
made up a mosaic of color and shape garnished further with dark
chocolate dipped strawberries. Around the base of the cake she
scrolled the word “Celebrate!” in the dark chocolate.
The entire
thing was just the cutest burst of color and flavor, lovingly made
into what I would call a true food party.
