baked Alaska definition and meaning

What is "baked Alaska"?

Baked Alaska is a classic dessert that is made from layers of ice cream, cake, and meringue. The dessert is typically assembled by placing a layer of cake on the bottom, followed by a layer of ice cream, and then another layer of cake on top. The entire dessert is then covered in a thick layer of meringue, which is then baked in the oven until it is golden brown on the outside and soft on the inside. The heat from the oven causes the meringue to caramelize and form a crispy shell around the ice cream and cake, while the ice cream remains frozen inside. Baked Alaska is often served as a showstopper dessert at special occasions and is a classic dessert that has been enjoyed for generations.
