Omelette surprise

Omelette surprise (French surprise omelette) is an ice cream dessert . Several layers of milk or cream ice cream and fruit ice cream are placed on top of one another and then encased in a brick or bomb shape with a capsule made of Viennese paste. The capsule is coated with soufflé mass about 1 cm thick and scorched at high top heat (250 ° C). The dessert must be served immediately. The surprise is that the ice cream remains underneath the baked surface . The portions can then be doused with alcohol and lit. They are served burning.

In the USA such a dessert is also called Baked Alaska , other names are Norwegian Omelette , Omelette Soufflé Surprise , Surprise Soufflee or Omelette Suedoise . A variant of this is the soufflé Fürst Pückler made from Fürst Pückler ice cream .
