Red velvet cake is typically covered in a French-style butter roux icing, though recently cream cheese frosting and buttercream have both been used as a simpler and tastier alternative. During World War II and the Depression, this moist cake got its vibrant coloring from boiled beets but has since adapted into red food coloring courtesy of a Texan company called Adams Extract. The cake gets its light and fluffy texture from the reaction caused by mixing buttermilk and vinegar together in addition to eggs, sugar, butter, baking soda, flour, cocoa powder, and salt.

Tiramisu needs no introduction - but we’ll give it one anyway. This classic Italian dessert is made up of sponge fingers soaked in coffee, traditionally layered between a coffee-flavored mascarpone cheese whipped with eggs and sugar, and then topped with cocoa. Literally meaning ‘pick-me-up’ in Italian, tiramisu is the perfect end to an Italian feast and can be found on most menus across the country.

Neapolitan ice cream is a staple of the freezer aisle. Chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry are served together — but not mixed or swirled, no, instead, these three flavors are presented in three perfect sections without any packaging dividing them. They neatly split the carton sitting side-by-side-by-side: the iconic Neapolitan look.

The pilgrims originally came to America to gain independence from Britain, and so they began distancing themselves from British culture in every aspect of their lives. Dutch and German immigrants taught them how to make a flaky, buttery crust, which the colonists then filled with sliced apples and spices, creating the iconic American dessert we enjoy today. While this certainly wasn’t the first time an apple pie was baked, it was likely the first time any of the colonists had tried the dessert. Apple pie is associated with the Fourth of July because the holiday is about celebrating independence from Britain, and baking apple pie carried a similar meaning for early colonists.

A spongy cake filled with vanilla cream – the Twinkie has been a lunchbox staple and pop culture icon since its invention in 1930. America’s favorite snack cake got its start in Schiller Park, Illinois – just outside of Chicago – when James Dewar, a manager for the Continental Baking Company, came up with a new idea for using strawberry shortcake pans after the strawberry season was over. He planned to bake the cakes and fill them with banana cream. Inspired by an advertisement for “Twinkle Toe Shoes,” Dewar dubbed the cakes “Twinkies” and sold them for five cents per package of two.

The healthiest chocolate is typically dark chocolate with a high cocoa content, ideally 70% or more. Dark chocolate is rich in fiber, iron, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, zinc, and selenium. It’s also packed with antioxidants, and it can have beneficial effects on heart health. However, it’s still high in calories and should be consumed in moderation. It’s important to choose dark chocolate that doesn’t have a lot of added sugars or unnecessary additives.

Toblerone is one of the most famous Swiss chocolates in the world. Theodor Tobler could hardly have dreamed of this when he invented the Toblerone in 1908 with his cousin Emil Baumann. When we talk about “global brands” today, Toblerone is, without a doubt, one of them. Few chocolates have become synonymous with “Swiss quality chocolate.” Whether in Tokyo, Rio, New York, London, or Berlin, lovers of this Swiss specialty can enjoy it in consistently high quality, with the certainty that it is a real piece of traditional Swiss chocolate.

Cotton candy, also known as candy floss (candyfloss) and fairy floss, is a spun sugar confection that resembles cotton. It is made by heating and liquefying sugar, and spinning it centrifugally through minute holes, causing it to rapidly cool and re-solidify into fine strands. It usually contains small amounts of flavoring or food coloring. It is often sold at fairs, circuses, carnivals, and festivals, served in a plastic bag, on a stick, or on a paper cone. Joseph Lascaux, a dentist from New Orleans, Louisiana, invented a cotton candy machine in 1921. His patent named the sweet confection "cotton candy", eventually overtaking the earlier name "fairy floss." In the United States, National Cotton Candy Day is celebrated on December 7.

The stock market crash of 1929 caused one of the biggest economic falls in American history. Workers were laid off, people found themselves standing in lines outside of the soup kitchen, and families scrounged to piece together what little money they had for food and shelter. While it was a time of hardship, emotional trauma, and loss, it was also a time of invention and creativity; mainly when it came to putting food on the table. Bare-bone desperation pie recipes, like the vinegar pie, were one of the ways people were able to provide a little taste of "the good life" without breaking the bank. So using a little bit of creativity, women in the 1930s took to using common items you would already have in your kitchen (apple cider vinegar, eggs, unsalted butter, white sugar, all-purpose flour) as a substitute for more uncommon or expensive items you would usually need to purchase for a lemon pie.

Churros are special South and Central American doughnut sticks. This sweet treat was adopted from Spain and is often called a "Mexican doughnut." Churros are tube-shaped, unyeasted sticks of dough, piped from a star-tipped pastry bag, fried in oil, and rolled in cinnamon sugar. They are delicious and surprisingly easy to make. In South America, churros are a little different. They are typically filled with something rich like dulce de leche, Nutella (hazelnut butter and chocolate), or vanilla pastry cream.

Creme brulee, also known as burnt cream or Trinity cream, and virtually identical to the original crema Catalana, is a dessert consisting of a rich custard base topped with a layer of hardened caramelized sugar. It is normally served slightly chilled; the heat from the caramelizing process tends to warm the top of the custard while leaving the center cool. The custard base is traditionally flavored with vanilla in French cuisine but can have other flavorings. It is sometimes garnished with fruit.
