Ice bowl

Hi!
I know this is not a cake, but is an original way to serve fruits, so I hope you like it!
Here is what you need:

  • 2 cups of different sizes and, better, of the same shape,
  • adhesive tape,
  • water,
  • fresh chilli
  • parsley or other decorative edible leaves

Proceed in layers putting the bowl in the refrigerator until reaching the desired height, taking care to close with a layer of water only. To unmold, simply leave the cup at room temperature for a few minutes and then you can easily extract.

Place the cup on a plate (which will collect the water that will drip out) and fill it with fruit or sorbet

Here are the shots of the procedure

See you soon!
Laura

Your bowl looks beautiful! I’ve made these several times, but never thought of using chillies, so colourful!
Since we moved house my freezer isn’t big enough… :/ …so now I can only look and dream. ;)
In my experience though it is best not to use glass bowls, since water expands as it freezes there is a great risk that the bowls will crack and break, and you end up with glass splinters everywhere. better use plastic!
It is also fun to add some food colouring to the water. ;)

Thank you Maria,
You are right but I use glass many and many times and I was fortunate :)
And yes, food color for water are a great idea!
Thanks again :)
