Gemma smiled at all of the students as they answered, "
As I mentioned the first of these desserts is from South America. It's called Alfajores...It's a type of macaroon...its made of caramel...my favorite and dough pastries to create the sandwich...some versions will add a creme or chocolate inside of them." she took her last bite and then went on to the second of the two.
She wiped her mouth and took a quick drink before continuing, "
And the second is a Nanaimo Bar from Canada. It is made of a wafer crumb-based layer, topped by a layer of light vanilla or custard flavoured butter icing, which is covered in chocolate made from melted chocolate squares...and the best part is that it requires no cooking..." she said excitedly. She glanced at the clock on the wall and realized it was way past their time.
She flicked her wand and everything started flying out of the room...o she hoped everyone was done eating. "
Well that's the end of our lesson...next time we are actually going to taste and cook four different dishes from the other side of the world..." she said standing up from her little table. "
I hope to see you all soon! Thanks for coming and eating...I mean...learning..." she finished with a little giggle.
She flicked her wand and the Homework appeared on the screen above the students.
