Limoncello in the sorbet intermezzo course are perfect accompaniments to a
sunny wedding brunch. One small scoop of thesefrosty delights, will cleanse the
palate in anticipation of the main course. For those whose wedding colors are,
for example, tones of rose or green, use Pomegranate Martini or Strawberry
Daiquiri, to coordinate or accent

The National Restaurant Association
recently crowned mini desserts the top food trend. Silver Moon allows culinary
experts to show their creativity in an unpretentious way with easy-to-prepare creations.
For example, a colorful Tasting
Trio of Mango Mimosa, Pomegranate Martini and Lavender Limoncello-- three
flavors served together for maximum sweet-tooth bliss. Or, perhaps a French Macaroon Ice Cream

kitchen making these tasteful desserts.
