 Bombe glacée |
A bombe glacée or simply a bombe in English, is an ice cream dessert frozen in a spherical mould so as to resemble a cannonball, hence the name. Escoffier gives over sixty recipes for bombes in Le Guide culinaire.[1] A recipe for "chocolate & meringue bombe" is given in Mary Berry's Complete Cook Book.[2] The dessert appeared on restaurant menus as early as 1882.[3]
