Dessert
Desserts from a Growing Dome lean toward fresh fruit, herbs, and edible flowers: berries, citrus, figs, lavender, mint, basil, and calendula petals turn home baking into something distinctive. The dome's year-round production opens up dessert ingredients you'd otherwise be sourcing from far away or skipping entirely. From simple fruit desserts to lavender-infused cakes to citrus tarts featuring dome-grown lemons, dome-driven dessert recipes bring the garden into the kitchen. This category brings together dessert recipes featuring fresh dome ingredients: fruit desserts, herb-infused sweets, cakes and tarts, and the home baking that tastes most like home.
