Overview

• Habiger’s formula for summer desserts calls for combining baked, fruity, frozen and saucy components in each dish.
• Yogurt-crush desserts are made by freezing yogurt or fruit juice on a sheet pan then scraping it into crunchy shards.
• Savarin molds let home cooks form ring-shaped ice desserts filled with fruit centers and accented with mousse or crumbs.
• Seasonal fruits such as lemon, orange, raspberry, strawberry, passion fruit and mango add brightness and natural sweetness.
• Edible flowers, radish cress, fruit sauces and crunchy toppings like chopped muesli or crumbled shortbread complete the presentation.
