A classic Norwegian dessert with historic connections
found on detsoteliv.no
This was actually the favourite dessert of Norway’s great composer, Edvard Grieg. Grieg had his last big party under the chandeliers at Engebret Café in Oslo in 1906, the year before he died. On Engebret Café’s website you can read that “at this party real turtle soup, moonlight pudding and sweet Champagne was served”.
By this one should understands that “Moonlight Pudding” was regarded as a luxurious dessert in the past, and that means it is well worth bringing it back on the menu.
Interesting. We used to call this Bavarian cream. It was a favourite when I was growing up but I could never persuade my children to appreciate it.
