Funny thing is: I've never been to Barcelona. Or Spain.
<br />
<br />But I have seen some sunsets in my time. And some of them had the colours yellow, ruby red and brown in. Sort of.
<br />
<br />Truth is: This recipe was conceived in faraway Barcelona and I figured I should attribute it. See, Mrs Y (the daughter of the lady I cook for) went there two years ago on holiday. She and Mister Y couldn't find the restaurant they were meant to go to, so they ducked into some little hidden treasure close to their hotel, and the chef produced something like this.
<br />
<br />I tried to re- create it according to what Mrs Y told me about the dessert. I tried different layers. I tried to bake the orange jelly. I considered using cornflour. And then this little creation popped out and got my tastebuds all in a tizz. You know how sublime dark chocolate and orange is? I have always raved about the flavour marriage. Henceforth I will always recommend a menage- a-trois with raspberry.
