Jason Van Leuven says he is working on a dessert he hopes it will be as popular as the Australian favourite, the pavlova.

“It will be the second dessert in Australia that has been named after someone.”

I think it is a good choice, myself. (Quite apart from separating the credulous from their credit.)

Jason’s Gateaux reminds me very much of the bible:

  • Incredible
  • Sickly-sweet in parts
  • Not good for growing children
  • Hard to swallow in large amounts
  • Manufactured
  • Rots parts inside your your skull
  • Expensive
  • Induces profound guilt
  • Makes priests’ hands sticky
  • Hard to Passover
  • Can be served with spirits
  • Contain nuts
  • Claimed to be “Heavenly”
  • Has short use-by date
  • Unbalanced intake
  • Addictive to the weak-willed
