Upon their small glass plate;
Fresh fruit that ripened sweetly
Has been arranged, ornate–
Cold creamy custard, smooth and

When eaten, leave upon one’s hand
A little sugar dust.

For Father’s day, I made profiteroles, and I filled them with lemon gelato, over which I drizzled strawberry puree. This flavor combination works really well.
To serve it, I sprinkled the pastry shells with powdered sugar and sliced a strawberry to decorate each plate.
