A Month of Sundaes - Triple Chocolate Sundae

Triple Chocolate Sundae

The Whish Month of Sundaes is about to get a whole lot more serious – in fact, some might even say it's about to become (dare we say) romantic. This sinfully sweet sundae celebrates chocolate in a dessert that's meant to be shared with a loved one, making this our official “Triple-Chocolate Sundae of Love.”

Chocolate is often regarded as one of the most sensual foods in existence as it has been shown to release endorphins similar to those experienced when a person falls in love. And there's a whole lot to love when it comes to this sundae. It combines three types of chocolate (dark, milk and white) in a sundae that's far too decadent to keep to yourself.

This impressive dessert is easy enough for anyone to make, even with its homemade chocolate sauces. So if you're all thumbs in the kitchen, fear not. This special sundae is sure to impress your special someone.

Just grab a couple of spoons, snuggle up close to your sweetheart and prepare to fall in love with chocolate all over again.

Breyers Triple Chocolate Ice Cream

We loved the idea of having three different types of chocolate ice cream and were pleased to discover that Breyers makes a triple chocolate variety so we could get all three in one package. 

Making Chocolate Curls:  There are a number of methods that Birthday Party Suppliers pastry chefs use to create those large flamboyant chocolate curls that involve using scrapers or large knives to scrape chocolate off of 5 kg blocks of chocolate or chocolate that has been spread thinly over a marble slab, but for quick home use I find that using a vegetable peeler along the side of a good quality chocolate bar gives me sweet little curls that look great sprinkled on desserts. For best results use a sharp peeler and make sure the chocolate is not too cold.
