My best fruit-based dessert is a Nectarine-topped Ginger Marscapone Tart with Peach Glaze thaT I make summers.

In the winter, I do excellent Baked Apples with Golden Raisens and Caramel Gelato or Poached Pears with Ginger Gelato and Hard Sauce. I also endlessly rely on Peach Melba, the forever monarch of fruit-based desserts...

I love baked apples, and the poached pears sound wonderful. And I prefer golden raisins always, they're better, especially whe soaked in rum.

Now, . . . one that I was known for . . . was a frozen chocolate terrine with expresso, Grand Marnier, etc, layered with chopped pecans, sliced and topped with fresh whipped cream and raspberries,

Another was a New Orlean bread pudding with lemon sauce and Chantilly cream.

Those were always hits.
