Black Forest Dessert

When I was a child, weekday desserts were usually a pudding or some fruit. The pudding would be either hot or cold. When it was hot, it was usually a cooked chocolate custard and served with vanilla sauce.

Fruit and Ice Dessert


Ice cream was always a treat. This was often served with a hot fruit sauce. The German name for this is "Eis und Heiss" (pronounced "ice and hice") meaning "Ice and Hot".

Many times, dessert was fruit. Fruit salad was always a hit. Fruit with ice cream was an even bigger hit. Sometimes, Mom would bake some cookies to serve along with the pudding or ice cream. This would always bring big smiles to us kids.
