Desserts, generally not considered meals, are usually served as snacks for afternoon tea. Commonly used raw materials include flour, milk, butter, sugar, cream, chocolate, fruit, nuts, etc., which are mainly baked at high temperature in an oven and have a sweet taste.


Eating desserts in moderation is good for your body. Because our human brain needs 100 to 150 grams of sugar per day, but our nervous system contains very little sugar. At this time, we need to rely on the blood to provide us with glucose at any time. When our blood sugar drops, we will feel a little tired and unable to concentrate on studying. But in severe cases, coma can occur, especially in people who skip breakfast. At this time, some desserts can make up for it.


Some of the more famous desserts include the following.


1. Tiramisu



Tiramisu is a sponge cake that uses mascarpone cheese as the main material, and then replaces traditional desserts with finger biscuits, adding coffee, cocoa powder and other materials. It tastes fragrant, smooth, sweet, greasy, and soft in the mouth with changes in texture, and the taste is not blindly sweet.


2. Chiffon cake



Chiffon cake is a dessert, which belongs to the type of sponge cake. The main raw materials are vegetable oil, eggs, sugar, flour, baking powder, etc. However, due to the lack of the rich aroma of butter cakes, chiffon cakes usually require rich juices, or toppings such as chocolate and fruit. Since vegetable oil does not foam as easily as butter, it is necessary to beat the egg whites into foam to provide enough air to support the volume of the cake. Chiffon cakes contain a sufficient amount of vegetable oil and eggs, so the texture is very moist and does not become hard like traditional butter cakes. Chiffon cakes also contain less saturated fat.


3. Mousse cake



Mousse cake is a cake made with mousse powder as the main material. The appearance, color, structure and taste are rich in changes, and it is more natural and pure. Usually, cream and coagulant are added to make it thick and frozen. It is a custard-style dessert that can be eaten directly or as a cake layer, usually by adding cream and coagulant to create a thick jelly-like effect. Like pudding, mousse is a kind of dessert, it is softer than pudding and melts in your mouth.
