Party Passion

I've not posted for a while which is indicative of  lack of time in the kitchen recently - the school holidays have taken hold plus our imminent product launch to our lovely consultants this week-end has meant time spent on other secret activities in our kitchen.

We did have time to run a recipe challenge for our consultants recently (find the winning recipe in our new edition Menu out in September) and as I was flipping through our recipe archive I found a consultant recipe for 'Chocaberry Passion' and with a house full of hungry kids today it was the perfect recipe to try.

Plus in August we have a fabulous host promotion featuring Chocaberry Cheese Ball Mix with Hibiscus and Rose Nectar so I thought I would combine the two. As you should know by now, we have a real passion for flavour and passion fruit coupled with our floral Hibiscus and Rose Nectar is a sublime combination. We also have a passion for our tasting parties - yes, I have come to terms with calling them 'parties' after all its food, its with friends and above all, its fun! So this month we have extra rewards for our hosts and customers too to thank them for their party passion too.

Chocaberry Cheese Ball Mix is a mainstay on our menu - as well as producing superb cheese cakes and you must try our semi-freddo recipe, here is another to add to the list. Chocaberry Passion has been used to fill simple pastry cases and topped with crystalised rose petals which have been sitting in my cupboard for far longer than I care to remember,

 

 
 
A simple drizzle of Hibiscus & Rose Nectar adds a perfect finishing touch to these perfect morsels................................
 


 
 
Similarly, you can go all out and with added fresh berries soused in Hibiscus & Rose Nectar to make a delectable dessert when out to impress.








Finally, I plan on mixing all the leftovers together with the soft fruits, passion fruit pulp and Hibiscus & Rose Nectar and either whizzing up as a super deluxe smoothie or putting it through my ice cream maker; either way nothing goes to waste and I'm feeling rather smug at creating several recipes from one. Although, mixing a few ingredients together is hardly 'cooking' but let that be our little secret!


Enjoy!
