Components of
Plated Dessert
The Main Item
The main item can be anything such as slice of pie, a mini
tart, a cluster of cookies, custard.
It is the actual dessert itself.
The main item should never be large that is overwhelming.
It should be the main focal point of the dessert presentation.
It should be the main source of flavor for the presentation
while the other components contrast and complement it.
The sauce
Plated dessert should have up to two sauces each.
Sauce is very important for dry items like pies and cakes
although a sauce can be also be added to any dessert.
The sauces used should be about the same consistency.
The sauces should be able to hold their own shape. This
allows for dessert sauces to be manipulated like paint to
create fun designs.
The Crunch
The crunch component is an added component that adds
a crunch to the desert.
It is usually a dry decorative cookie or biscuit added to
any dessert to make it crunchy.
It enriches the dish and makes the flavor of the dish more
enjoyable from the first bite up to the last.
This is especially important to soft desserts.
Garnish
 The garnishes the final component of a plated dessert. Common
garnishes include fresh mint leaves, powdered sugar, chocolate piping,
fruit, chocolate and sugar work, and sorbet.
 Garnish should be used with restraint just as much as it should be
used tastefully.
 A garnish that is over used garnish is the mint leaf. Although an
amount leaf has a refreshing flavor and adds a color to dessert, this
garnish is very common. A pastry chef should push his boundaries
and use his creativity to find a garnish that works better than a mint
Goals of Plating Dessert

customer.

venue’s theme.

Storing Desserts
1. A product is only as fresh as it
is when you put it in the freezer.
2. Wrap desserts properly in moisture
and vapor-proof paper or foil before
storing in the freezer.
Storing Desserts
3. Quick-freeze baked goods.
Allow air to circulate and
evenly set the food to freeze.
4. Follow the rule “Once defrosted, do
not refreeze.” Store by batches so
thawing can be done only as needed.
Storing Desserts
5. Thaw as rapidly as possible in a
warm area with circulating air. This
prevents moisture from setting into
the baked product that can cause
soggy pots. Soft crusted and sugar
coated breads and pastries can be
thawed in an oven.
Storing Desserts
6. Cakes and
cupcakes should be
covered or boxed to
prevent drying, then
refrigerated.
Storing Desserts
7. Cream custard or nut
with custard base should
be covered or boxed and
must be refrigerated. Do
not freeze after baking.
Storing Desserts
8. Doughnuts should be
covered or boxed and stored
generally in an adequate
space to avoid crushing.
Packaging Desserts
Things to consider in packaging desserts
a. Protection
b. Tampering resistance
c. Special physical, chemical, or biological needs
a. to keep the food in good condition until it is sold and
consumed
b. to attract and encourage customers to purchase the
product
c. to provide the correct environmental conditions for food,
starting from the time food is packed until its
consumption
The main aim of packaging
A good package should therefore
have the following functions:
1. Provide a barrier against dirt and other contaminants
keeping the product clean.
2. Prevent losses. For example, packages should be securely
closed to prevent leakage.
3. Protect food against physical and chemical damage such
as the harmful effects of air, light, insects, and rodents.
A good package should therefore
have the following functions:
4. Provide protection and convenience in handling and
transport during distribution and marketing.
5. Help the customers identify the food and instruct them
how to use it correctly.
6. Prevents any wastage such as leakage or deterioration
which may occur during transportation and distribution.

Editor's Notes

  • #6 Included dried fruits and cheese served with sweet wines. During those times, only the elites and the rich members of the society had the rare opportunity of having desserts in formal dinners.
  • #7 With the advent of modern cuisines, pastry chefs improved their dessert collections. Elegant plated desserts in restaurants complement different cuisines – be it classic French crème brulee, individually plated chocolate tortes, smooth and creamy panna cotta with fruit variations and chilled souffles and mousse.
  • #8 Every country and every culture has invented and reinvented their own desserts.
  • #9 Desserts are here to stay, to complement, and to complete every meal.
  • #12 Without dessert, the meal is never complete.
  • #34 This, in itself, is a marketing strategy of attracting and selling different desserts to customers, depending on its presentation, neatness, orderliness, pleasing combination of color, form, size and texture.
  • #35 This, in itself, is a marketing strategy of attracting and selling different desserts to customers, depending on its presentation, neatness, orderliness, pleasing combination of color, form, size and texture.
  • #36 A dessert that is too complex will put too much stress on the kitchen staff when it needs to be the reproduced and a dessert that is too expensive will never be purchased by the costumers. This, in itself, is a marketing strategy of attracting and selling different desserts to customers, depending on its presentation, neatness, orderliness, pleasing combination of color, form, size and texture.
  • #40 said to mean that something new can only be judged to be good or bad after it has been tried or used.
  • #43 1. A product is only as fresh as it is when you put it in the freezer. Freezing prevents deterioration or staling but does not improve its freshness.
  • #46 6. Cakes and cupcakes should be covered or boxed to prevent drying, then refrigerated. Do the same with whipped cream, cream filled cakes, puffs, and eclairs. Unsliced or butter frosted, fudge, iced, and whipped cream cakes can be frozen if wrapped in moisture and vapor-proof paper. Unbaked pies may be frozen if ingredients are designed for freezing. It is not advisable to freeze fruit pies when not yet baked and are not yet frosted. When baked and frosted, you can store it in a cool place or in the refrigerator.
  • #47 7. Cream custard or nut with custard base should be covered or boxed and must be refrigerated. Do not freeze after baking. 8. Doughnuts should be covered or boxed and stored generally in an adequate space to avoid crushing. Like cakes, they can be frozen then thawed at room temperature. They can be heated in covered pan in an oven to refresh them .
