My wife loves to bake. She made a cake from fresh lemons and ginger. It is light and refreshing. To top it, she took apricot preserves and shaved white chocolate into it. It was very good. To top it off, I made a Chambord sabayon.

Oh my Chef John! This looks delicious! Your wife is quite a baker! 🙂 Shaved white chocolate sound so good on this cake. What is Chambord sabayon?
Sabayon the French spelling usually made with Champagne or Zabaglione the Italian spelling usually made with Marsala is basically a cooked egg yoke and sugar dish served over fresh fruit. Chambord is an all natural French raspberry liqueur. In this usage, I mixed equal parts brandy and the chambord to create a flavorful accompaniment to my wife’s cake
