National Dessert Month

October is National Dessert Month. Well, I don’t know about you, but I celebrate Dessert Month every day! We all like desserts and there are desserts  that are better than others are, but that of course is all a matter of opinion.  For some people a dessert must be chocolate. For others, the key ingredient may be peanut butter, ice cream, whipped cream. 

We can be thankful that we weren’t around in ancient civilizations. They only enjoyed dessert occasionally and the primary desserts were fruits and nuts candied with honey. In the middle ages, sugar was only affordable to the wealthy. 

Often clients who eat poorly will eat the dessert offered to them. In this case, the goal should be to get as much nutrition into a serving. The six dessert recipes in Flavorful Fortified Food – Recipes to Enrich Life are a start to meet that goal of increased nutrition.
