Dessert Highlights: Sweet Perfection Awaits
Boston Cream Pie
A Boston Classic, Reimagined: The official dessert of Massachusetts, this treat is actually more like a cake than a pie. Tradition holds that it’s called a “pie” because it was originally baked in the same dish used for pies. At American Revelry, we honor this classic with three layers of fluffy sponge cake, silky vanilla custard, and a glossy chocolate ganache topping.
Suggested Pairings:
The Revelry Smoked Old Fashioned: The rich bourbon notes and subtle smokiness complement the vanilla custard and decadent chocolate
Chandon, Brut, California: Crisp bubbles cut through the sweetness, enhancing the dessert’s light sponge layers.
Americano: The robust coffee notes pair wonderfully with chocolate, providing a balanced, classic finish.
Key Lime Pie
A Taste of the Tropics: From our Florida regional menu comes this zesty creation that captures the spirit of the Sunshine State. Chef has crafted a vibrant key lime custard nestled in a graham cracker crust, topped with a tangy sour cream layer and fresh vanilla whipped cream. One bite, and you’re transported to the tropical and magical Florida Keys—a refreshing escape on any day.
Suggested Pairings:
Pom Paloma: The grapefruit and pomegranate accents echo the citrusy tang of the key lime custard.
LangeTwins Chenin Blanc: Bright apple and apricot notes mirror the pie’s tartness while offering a refreshing finish.
Blue Moon Belgian White: The citrus flavors harmonize with the key lime for a light, refreshing pairing.
Salted Caramel Brownie Sundae
The Ultimate Comfort Food: A warm, fudgy brownie topped with creamy vanilla ice cream, drizzled with rich chocolate and caramel sauces, and crowned with whipped cream and crushed pretzels for a delightful salty-sweet crunch. Every bite feels like a cozy hug for your taste buds—it doesn’t get more comforting than this!
Suggested Pairings:
Nitro Milk Stout: Its creamy, chocolatey profile enhances the brownie’s richness and pairs seamlessly with the caramel.
Apple Butter Mule: The warm spices and caramel notes in the mule resonate beautifully with this decadent dessert.
Vina Robles The Arborist: Mocha and dark stone fruit flavors from this wine create a perfect harmony with the sundae’s indulgent layers.
Crème Brûlée
Simple Elegance: A touch of French sophistication in dessert form. Break through the perfectly caramelized sugar crust to the velvety smooth and creamy vanilla custard. Adorned with fresh berries for a burst of tart sweetness, it's a timeless classic that will leave you fighting your table mates for every last bite.
Suggested Pairings:
Cognac Sunset: The lavender and allspice enhance the vanilla custard’s delicate sweetness and the caramelized sugar’s depth.
Lapis Luna Chardonnay, North Coast: Buttery and slightly oaky, this wine complements the creamy custard.
Chocolate Toffee Mousse Cake
Indulge in Decadence: This masterpiece features layers of velvety chocolate mousse infused with the irresistible crunch of chewy toffee. A buttery chocolate cookie crumb crust provides the perfect foundation, while a decadent ganache, toffee crumbles, and a swirl of whipped cream adorn the top. Finished with a playful Pirouette cookie, this cake is an American Revelry cult favorite.
Suggested Pairings:
The Prisoner Wine Company, Unshackled: This red blend’s fruit and spice notes match the toffee and chocolate richness.
Roasted Pear Tini: Vanilla and roasted pear create a nuanced pairing with the cake’s layers of mousse and ganache.
Guinness Stout: The deep roasted malt flavor balances the dessert’s sweetness for a more adventurous pairing.
