Sorbets

Sorbets, pavlovas, cakes and fruit crumbles were listed- this was another hard choice.

The pool cafe is open from 11 am to 4 pm daily, and the menu includes ahi poke, caprese toast, shrimp ceviche, watermelon salad, black Angus burger, crispy chicken sandwich, fish tacos, and housemade ice creams, sorbets and push pops.

With a focus on top quality ingredients, you can pick up lemon sorbets and ice cream made using the owner’s grandmother’s original recipe.

The updated version of that book features 175 recipes with a seasonal dessert focus, like berry-filled tarts and Concord grape sorbets.

For dessert, I’d forgo the dense, nontraditional tiramisu made with Nutella, amaretto and caramelized bananas in favor of the frozen bomba — mango, passionfruit and raspberry sorbets encased in a white chocolate shell.

Ice cream and sorbets are also very popular.
