The Cream Puff is taking a short break in the form of one week in a warmer climate. I’ll be back refreshed and ready to begin the two-week baking marathon that is my lead-up to Christmas.
For those of you that have been around this blog long enough, you’ll remember that last year I took a trip in December as well but not before I left you some homework.
Well I certainly don’t want you getting all lazy while I’m gone. So here’s another homework assignment.
Guess what dessert is pictured in the photograph above.
The first person to guess correctly, wins a copy of this book.
See you in a week!
Ciao!

Tiramisu.
Jelly
Is it a tiramisù?
linda
Tiramisù would be my guess too…
linda
Oh, and have a wonderful week!
Kellu
Eggnog custard or eggnog rice pudding.
Hannah
Tiramisu? But alas, that’s already been guessed… Maybe just a parfait with espresso?
Have a good time!
Rosa
Tiramisù with coffee…
Have a great week!
Cheers,
Rosa
rachel
This is either a sweet shot or a latte!
Corianne
a combination of eggnog and tiramisu in a glas
Jenny
Hmm, wild and crazy guess – something savory designed to look like tiramisu. Maybe a mashed potato parfait with cumin.
Peter
I’m guessing Tiramisu as well.
SumoSquirrell
My first guess was a trifle, of sorts. But, looks like there’s more than one so I’m stumped.
Still, looks yummy!

I’ am Isabella, and I am from Venice, do you know the venitian name of cream puffs?, they are called “storti con la panna”, it was diffused to go specially into two places in Venice and eat them. Now it is not so common any longer, but when we were younger , our parents use to take us to eat them in winter with hot chocolate !!!

Looks like tiramisu to me!
Nancy Streicher
Looks like good ol’ fashioned rice pudding to me. Whatever it is, it looks delicious!
Janet
Tiramisu!
Jennifer
Hmmm.. it looks like tiramisu, with the layers, but the white part actually kind of looks like tapioca?
megan
Exspresso mocha cream custard!
Michelle B
Coffee Zabaglione.
If I am right, please send the book to Jenny whose clever culinary creativity is worth her winning even if her guess is incorrect.
Nazca
Spotted Dick?
Mary
While my first guess is tiramisu, that’s already taken so I’ll go with a frozen capuccino type desert?
Carol
My guess is a “Merry Mocha Espresso Eggnog”. Hope I’m the lucky one. Enjoy!
veron
tiramisu coffee glace
Stacey
My first guess was tiramisu as well, but since that’s taken I’m going to go with a coffee tapioca trifle.
shelbi
my guess would be tiramisu as well
please stop by my blog for a visit to see the giveaway i am hosting in honor of world vision
Hillary
Definitely some sort of tiramisu. A tiramisu trifle?!
Have a good vacation!
Jenny
I’d have said Tiramisu too but so many other people read this before I did. Oh well…..
Alana
Chai spiced Tiramisu?
Maureen Hargrave
rice pudding
VeggieGirl
yep, as soon as I looked at it, I said, “tiramisu!!” – too bad I visited your blog so late :0(
Paula from Only Cookware
It looks like a tiramisu.
jacquie
rice pudding w/ a hint of coffee
Tea
Tiramisu, but it was too easy…or you’re trying to trick us?

peabody
Individual tiramisu.
Have a great time in warmer weather!
Kat
Espresso tiramisu?
Mehrunnisa
tiramisu
Jenn
I think it looks like a delicious portion of tiramisu – with mascarpone for sure… no?
Jenn
That cookbook looks great! I’m guessing they used tiramisu because its such a great way to use coffee in dessert. Have a nice trip, it’s quite cold here so I wish I could get some sun before the holidays!
Ann
Merry Espresso Eggnog Custard
baking soda
Uhoh..late to the party with my guestimated horizontally layered Tiramisu (wow now you really have to pick me up after this sentence).
barbara
I think it’s Tiramisu but I’m not the first to say that.
Marie
How bout Tiramisu rice pudding??
Thanh
It definitely looks like Tiramisu.
But maybe the trick is that we have to be inventive and give this dessert type name.
With the chocolate egg thing at the top, maybe there are some in the middle as well. Hence I’m going to guess that the dessert is
“Christmas Treasure Hunt In The Snow”
cakebrain
Hey! That’s a lovely picture of Tiramisu in a cup!
Happy Holidays!
Scarlet
Some sort of espresso custard?
Kelleigh
Zabaglione? What ever it is, it looks delicious!
hag
Well I am going with the majority…but I think it is an eggnog tiramisu… whatever it is ..it looks delicious.
Bobbie
eggnog pudding…
Looks fabulous no matter what it is
Claire
Espresso mousse.
Mary
I may be way out in left field here.. but the custardy substance in the glass puts me in mind of tapioca, perhaps layered with a bit of cocoa powder, with some sprinkled on top for good measure and topped with a chocolate covered espresso bean?
Libby K.
Looks like rice pudding to me…
Kimberly
Looks like Coffee Tiramisu to me. Too bad I am so late.
stephen
cream of potato soup with an olive on top?
xtine
Easter Hat Cupcakes!…It’s strange how the cupacake made me think of spring as am double-checking my Christmas list.
Happy Holidays,
barbie2be
i’m guessing that tiramisu is too obvious. i think it is some kind of cappuccino mouse.
brilynn
Oh sure, leave as soon as I get here!
Tiramisu semifreddo.
Rebecca
Just to be a little bit different from everyone else, I will call this dessert an individual tiramisu trifle. Looks good!
maureen
creamy tapioca laced with mocha cream
Sam Chin
Tiramisu Martini?
MLO
Maybe I’m way off, but it looked like a creamy rice pudding with cinnamon to me.
Cheryl
I’m not going to guess cause I’m sure someone has gotten it right by now. But it looks good. Enjoy your break.
Mirella
Its Tiramisu
Britt-Arnhild
I would say tiramisu……but I see I am not the first one
studio wellspring
single serve mocha tiramisu triffle? ;o) sounds incredibly delicious to me!
cityfarmer
this I believe is tapioca
let’s chat
Robin (Bumblebee)
I’m guessing it’s a coffee-flavored rice pudding OR a coffee-flavored bread pudding.
–Robin (Bumblebee)
alice
I’m guessing a Moka semifreddo, but the sides make me think eggnog tiramisu. However, since that guess is already taken, Moka Semifreddo it is!
Happy vacationing!
Sam Chin
My guess is Tiramisu Martini. I did my homework and checked the index of the book at Amazon
R
Mocha Cappuccino with one coffee bean in center
for photo style.Have a nice trip .I will be away more than 2 weeks too.
SimplePleasures
its a Tiramisù!
Liliana
At first I thought it was a tiramisu – but then I though it might a mixture of coffee zabaliogne with cream?
Scorpio
Tapioca? It sure looks like it has those little beads in it.
dinazad
Rice pudding. Or possibly tapioca pudding.
paintedpears
Eggnog bread pudding?
David D.
Cappuccino trifle?
xtine
Oopsie…I was trying to name the chocolate cupcakes with li’l lavender flower hats earlier–I got a little start when I scrolled up and found a completely different dessert. This looks more like a Toddy Trifle.
Beverly
cookies ‘n cream frappe
bea at La tartine gourmande
I hope you have fun, and come back refilled!
Iisha
I’ll say that it’s a version of chocolate eggnog (latte)
Cabriola
mmm tiramisú? or mousse of tiramissu?
congratulations for this amazing blog and greetings from Spain
Mary
I still believe it’s tapioca, and if it’s not cocoa sprinkled on it, then it’s espresso powder, with the chocolate covered espresso bean on top. Looking forward to finding out the result.
Suganya
Wow! What a fantastic start to the week. Ivonne, Thank you very much
