Desserts
There are new desserts in the dessert card restaurant "Tsar":
Apple Strudel with a Scoop of Vanilla Ice-Cream
The wife of Tsar Nicolas I, born as Princess of Prussia to Frederick William III and converted into Orthodoxy as Alexandra Fedorovna, was an expert in sweet things. She loved all the best. Once on a hot summer day walking in a palace park she wished for a delicious strudel and some ice-cream. Nobody dared to object the tsarina and Alexandra Fedorovna was served a piece of strudel on a plate with a scoop of ice-cream. That is how the scrumptious dessert came about.
Puff Pastry Vatrushka (Curd Patty) with Farmer Cheese
Tsar Alexander III adhered to strict moral principles, was pious and known for his frugality and modesty. He also loved everything native to Russia. The court confectioner had a hard time inventing desserts that would please both tsar’s taste and heart because Alexander III disapproved of all things foreign. Traditional pancakes, sweet big and small pies became tiresome. Once, instead of curd the confectioner occasionally put farmer cheese into vatrushka. It turned out so delicious! The tsar identified the unusual taste and having learned that it was due to the new filling (the farmer cheese), remembered the dessert asking to always serve it at his table.
Orange Pudding of White Chocolate with Fresh Berries Sauce
Tsar Aleksey Mikhailovich had 16 children all of whom liked different things. Girls had a sweet tooth and boys always craved for new and newer desserts annoying their father with requests. Some demanded strawberries, some wanted oranges, some wished for wild berries. And all of them were mad about chocolate. The tsar ordered his cooks to invent a dessert that all his children would like. Having collected all wishes the court confectioners made the most delicate orange pudding of white chocolate served with the freshest juicy berries. To tsar's delight his kids just loved it. So, it was served at the royal table since then.
