    My favorite dessert is definitely the Russian dessert Vatrushka. I am Russian and my mother has made it for me since I was little. Sort of cake, sort of donut, with a filling of sugar and jam. It’s delicious. I’d love to attend Sugar and Champagne. 🙂

    Would love to win this! My fave dessert – hard to pick one, but I’ll never turn down a Tres Leches cake!

    My favorite dessert is self-serve frozen yogurt with toppings.

    While I love sweets in general, I’d have to say that my all-time favorite dessert is the Chocolate Onyx at Coco Sala (I’ve never tried it with Champagne, but I imagine it would pair quite well).

    It is so hard to choose one dessert! A slice of decadent red velvet cake with cream cheese icing tops the list for me.

    My favorite dessert is the Russian dessert vatrushka. My mom has made it for me since I was little (we are Russian). It is dough with some cream cheese, sometimes ricotta, and jam. Its half pastry half donut! Super yummy! I’d love to attend this event!
