The Mont Blanc is the signature dessert at Angelina, a pastry shop in Paris that has served the alpine-like dome, layered with meringue, chantilly cream (sweet whipped cream) and vermicelles of sweet chestnut purée, since 1903. While all of our freezer cakes can be enjoyed fresh, our Mont Blanc was expressly adapted to be made and frozen ahead of time. Don’t forget to dust it with icing sugar before serving to recreate the snow-capped splendour of Western Europe’s highest peak.

Our recipe developers are masters of reinvention. They’ve outdone themselves with this new take on two of the season’s staples: eggnog and cheesecake (always a natural for the freezer). This innovative spin on both sticks to all the flavour fundamentals we know and love—graham cracker crust, cream cheese, eggnog spices, rum—and binds them together in what we’re calling a new holiday classic. Who knew the best eggnog was one you eat with a fork?

Turkey and Vegetable Chili au Gratin
Ricardo (and Brigitte!) understands that life is turned upside down with a new baby—he’s been through it three times! So he’s made a habit of giving coolers filled with ready-to-serve meals to friends expecting little bundles of joy, often delivering them right after baby arrives (to weather the first twenty-four hours). It’s a gift that everyone can appreciate; from the brother-in-law who had a tough week at work, to the newly separated or a friend who’s going through chemotherapy. Really, the only thing you have to do with this chili is pop it into the oven. And since it’s bursting with vegetables, there’s no need to worry about a side dish.
