Dessert “Mother’s Flower” was first prepared in the St. Petersburg restaurant Ko-ko-ko. This dish is served on a plank and is an imitation of an overturned broken pot with a flower. The dessert looks very believable and is in great demand. It is easy to repeat it at home. The pot is made from melted chocolate, and you can improvise with fillers.
Taking the idea as a basis, you can come up with your own recipe options. As a “ground” it is allowed to use a chocolate biscuit or crushed coffee biscuits. Cream can be custard, butter, soufflé, cottage cheese and protein. As an additional ingredient, it is allowed to use fresh fruits, berries, nuts, natural marmalade.
