Reflections

Overall Rating: ★★★★☆

I was very inspired by the mounds of ripe stone fruits at the farmer’s market and wanted to capture the taste of a juicy sweet peach in sorbet form. This was a super refreshing and light dessert, but its taste and texture could be improved.

The Good (what went well):

  • Sweet peachy fragrance: The peachy sweetness literally radiates from the fruit. Pick the ripe ones that smell delicious!

The Bad (lessons learned):

  • Slushy texture: There’s a lot of water in peaches and not enough solids in the pint to hold the texture. Boiling down the peaches or adding more body would help.
  • Not sweet enough: This is up to personal preference, but I would add some more sugar next time to boost the peach’s nature sweetness.
