Amaya wanted to explore chocolate covered strawberries on a doughnut. We discussed topping a doughnut with sliced strawberries dipped in chocolate. We discussed using "those freeze dried strawberries you use in your glazes daddy." We talked about our vanilla and chocolate dough. As we explored the ideas she asked about glazing our chocolate doughnut with our strawberry glaze. (Now made with strawberry puree.) I loved the idea and tried a few test doughnuts today. They sold extremely quickly. Amaya's curiosity allowed her to cleverly combine ingredients inspired by her own previous pleasurable eating experiences. Creativity at its best.
