Desserts from Pastry Chef Joy always have a great origin story. Here’s what she says about the Hurricane Cheesecake:
I’ve always used cocktails as a building block to making desserts. I chose to highlight the Hurricane, a cocktail that’s a New Orleans staple.
The tropical fruits of the fassionola syrup just screams “summer is here!” The orange cheesecake gives it the acidic pop and it’s rounded out with a very rummy caramel.
Sliced in a long rectangular bar to remind you of a beach towel. Then dressed with a cocktail umbrella that ties it all in. IYKYK.
