Peach Melba Day

🍑

Peach Melba Day is a day to celebrate one of the sweetest and most decadent desserts ever created.
This luscious treat, consisting simply of juicy peaches and sassy raspberry sauce topped with a generous dollop of creamy vanilla ice cream, has been tantalizing taste buds for over a century.

The story goes that this delicious dessert was created in honor of the famous opera singer Nellie Melba.
Nellie, who was known for her beautiful voice and glamorous style, was said to be so enamored with the delectable combination of peaches and raspberry sauce that she demanded it be served to her every night.
And thus, Peach Melba was here to stay!  

So, what exactly is a Peach Melba? It’s incredibly simple – juicy peaches topped with raspberry sauce and vanilla ice cream.
But don’t let its simplicity fool you, the combination of flavors is a symphony in your mouth.
The tangy taste of raspberries complement the juicy sweet peaches and then the cream ties those two fruits smoothly together.
And if you’re feeling adventurous, why not try a twist on the classic?
Add some crushed almonds or a dollop of whipped cream. 

To celebrate Peach Melba Day, gather your friends and family and indulge in this sweet treat.
Try some classic Peach Melba or experiment with new variations, like Peach Melba sorbet or Peach Melba ice cream sundaes.
And for those who like to live on the wild side, why not try a Peach Melba martini or a Peach Melba smoothie?

Life is short and so is Peach Melba Day.
Let’s raise a dessert spoon to Nellie and all of the sweet tooths out there who appreciate this delicious dessert.
Happy Peach Melba Day!
