I love that the French have given such descriptive names to their desserts. My favorite is the meringue dessert called iles flottantes.Literal translated into English it means floating islands. A big ball of meringue is floating in a bowl of creme anglaise (aka melted vanilla ice cream) and caramel is drizzled over the meringue. The dessert really does look like its name.
