* They are a mix of Valencia and Navel varieties. There are about 10 or more oranges.
* Looking for ideas for desserts other than those involving gelatin, flan, fruit salad, or eating them plain.
* Recipes aren’t necessary, but are appreciated. Looking for ideas that will use up a lot of oranges, not just one or two.
Dune – LOL. That’s so cute.
Mary P. – If I get one of these done, it would be an accomplishment. I’m going to attempt something today. If all goes bad, then squeeze and freeze might be the way to go.
It’s tough to choose a best answer on this one…
Dune, that’s a great tip about the zest by the way.

Other than what you mentioned, you don’t have many choices for that many oranges.
I’d make some marmalade…..it stores really well and can be used in many different ways.
Orange Chicken, for instance, can be made with marmalade, as well as a delightful pasta sauce I know of. LOL…its a dessert sauce of course, but its perfect for making fruit pizza.
Then there are Orange Marmalade Glazed Pork Chops, Orange Marmalade Muffins….all sorts of things!

If you decide to use them this way, here is a good recipe for you (I’ve used it myself so I know it works out well)

You can also use some of the oranges in an Orange Julius…
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 c. milk
1/4 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
5 or 6 ice cubes
whirl it all in a blender until smooth

I am trying to start a business that would cater alcoholic desserts to different parties and events. What steps do I need to take to make sure I am legal in Washington State?

There currently is no regulation for such desserts in Washington state.

I want ideas for desserts that are fresh-fruit based, that use little to no bleached or otherwise processed flour. Something simple (the simpler the healthier, usually) but still delicious. I would prefer it be from scratch, too, not something where I buy little cakes and dump stawberries all over them or whatever.

You don’t have to give me the exact recipe, just give me the name of it and maybe even where I might find it on the web.

Meanwhile, hull strawberries and place in food processor or blender. Add icing sugar and process just until pureed.
Transfer to mixing bowl and stir in gelatin mixture. Refrigerate until mixture is consistency of raw egg whites. Whip cream (if using) and set aside.
In large bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Whisk about ¼ of beaten egg whites into strawberry mixture.
Fold strawberry mixture and whipped cream into remaining beaten egg whites.
Pour into 6-cup glass serving bowl or individual glasses and refrigerate at least 4 hours or up to days.
Garnish with fresh strawberries.

I’m looking for some quick and easy to make puddings and desserts that I can make at work and sell in small pots and tubs for take away at work. I am a chef in a office block restraunt so most people that come in want stuff they can take back to their desk. If you have any suggestions and even recipies I’d be really greatful x

Upside Down Pear Pudding

Preparation Time – 10 Minutes
Cooking Time – 50 Minutes

By Patricia

Microwave ovens are not only for warming ready cooked meals, or defrosting food straight from the freezer. They can also be used to save time and money preparing a range of fresh foods. This recipe is just one example of what can be achieved with a microwave and a little imagination. There is one golden rules for cooking with a microwave; never cook or warm food in metal containers or metal plates.

Ingredients:
30g butter
30g brown sugar
400g tinned pears
30g chopped nuts (optional)

Sponge base
55g butter
55g caster sugar
40g self raising flour
15g cocoa
½ tsp baking powder
1 egg
1 tbl water

Cooking Instructions:

1. Put the sugar and butter in an 7in/18cm cake dish (microwaveable) into the microwave oven on high for 1 min.

2. Remove from the microwave and stir the butter and sugar together.

3. Place the pears in the dish and sprinkle the nuts over the top.

4. Mix all the sponge ingredients in a bowl and beat until smooth, for at least 2 minutes.

5. Spread the pears and the nuts over the dish, then cook in the microwave for 6mins on high.

6. Stand for two 2 minutes, turn out and serve.

Note:- as with all recipes cooked in the microwave the standing time is very important because the food is still cooking when it comes out of the oven.

I need to find a site that has some good info about desserts in Guatemala, any help?

What do you have to do? How much does it cost to start a bakery and cafe in walnut creek california? How much can you make? Does anyone own their own business and want to mentor a soon to be college graduate debating what needs to be done? And lastly would anyone want to buy European desserts rather than the typical doughnut ?

I suggest starting out in a Culinary Arts school or university. I would say it costs well over $500,000 to start a bakery in California. Completely depends on location though. I’d rather buy European desserts over a doughnut.
