This was our dessert category entry at the Smokin on the Creek BBQ contest at Sugar Creek, MO. Cheesecake was mixed with diced fresh strawberries and a strawberry glaze and formed into large balls. Then everything was dipped in dark chocolate and set onto slivered almonds. Garnished with fresh strawberries on a simple white platter.
The dessert pictured above placed 6th out of 28 entries today. Dessert is a very challenging category because of the very high talent of dessert competitors. I don’t consider myself one of those people at all. Thus, I’m very proud of how this finished.
