July Daring Bakers' challenge-fresh fraisier!

Hello Evryone!
 Jana of Cherry Tea Cakes was our July Daring Bakers’ host and she challenges us to make Fresh Frasiers inspired by recipes written by Elisabeth M. Prueitt and Chad Robertson in the beautiful cookbook Tartine.
July DB challenge was my first, and it`s be realy cool! Thanks for Jana of Cherry Tea Cakes-What could be better in summer than fresh berries?
When I made my cake, strawberries in Russia is over, I'm a little upset. But he passed the shop windows, my eyes fell on the bright clusters of grapes ...
As a result, my cake I made with him. Let it was not easy, but it looked really impressive!
Since my family loves the chocolate biscuits, I made a base out of it. Also, amazingly fragrant mint syrup.
In the morning I could not wait when I can try my creation. God, what a taste! Light, bright, really summer. If it were not for the family, I probably would have eaten all:))
Thank you, Jana!)


 

Tres leches cupcakes

I confess: muffins on our table-frequent guests. And indeed, got the ingredients in advance of the refrigerator, dry mixed with liquid, sprinkled with berries, and after 20 min fresh muffins for morning coffee is ready. But here cupcakes .... Did not even once. Is that ate at the cafe.

But then I finally got his hands:) With buttercream in this heat, I decided after all not to get involved and replaced it with a nice little fluid coating, and made the basis, based recipe and notorious pie that way, I also never done before. And it was ... Delicious:) was thinking: what would be done?)

Guinness ice cream

So:
In the baking of alcohol we face often enough: for the cake and dried fruit in brandy soaked, and add rum to the cream, and sauces are based on vodka and wine can be found often enough ...
And what about ice cream?
In love for him to admit I never tire of. A particularly important, it is now, in the summer.
The abundance of different kinds of ice cream, sorbets and frozen desserts in the friend-tape just run up your eyes! And today I want to show a rather interesting version of chocolate ice cream with a dark beer, which gives the dessert a noble bitterness.
