Actually, let me restate that. For the second straight year, let’s thank All in WDW’s expert on desserts – our “almost” daughter-in-law, Sarah – for penning the “official” All in WDW 2014 Epcot Food & Wine Festival Top 20 Desserts!
Australia’s Pavlova!
She’s the perfect person for the job. Why? Well, first, because I can’t be trusted around that much sugar. Second? She could pretty much make anything on this list herself!
So, what does she have to say?

Hello, again! My process was simple. I ranked the desserts on how delicious and interesting they sounded to me. For example, crème brûlée is always my dessert of choice, so naturally it was #1.
Alternatively, the Chocolate-Blood Orange Cupcake with tofu icing, honestly, just didn’t sound good at all.
My taste for citrus flavors has dramatically increased over the past year, but tofu icing? The thought of taking tofu, with its scallop-like texture, and making icing out of it just doesn’t sound like my kind of thing.
I’m sure the execution of this dessert will be fabulous, and, as Andrew Zimmern from Travel Channel’s Bizarre Foods says, “If it looks good, eat it!”

I’m going to miss the Rice Pudding the Mexico Marketplace had last year!
Rice Pudding holds a special place in my heart. My Grandma used to make it for me, God bless her. I never tried Mexico’s out of respect for her memory … and the fact that it had no chance of being better than hers. 🙂
