Talk:Givré

WPFood assessment
Low importance stub. Article needs expansion. --Jeremy ( Blah blah... ) 06:09, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

merge with sorbet
The article itself says it all:"It mainly is just sorbet in a shell with a unique name." Assessment above says low importance and needs expansion. Just merge this puppy instead. -- B.S. Lawrence (talk) 22:18, 2 December 2013 (UTC)

Perhaps there could be a 'collective article for exotic ice cream desserts' - including reference baked alaska and the 'see alsos' from there. Jackiespeel (talk) 10:47, 23 December 2013 (UTC)

Seriously, all this needs is a short sentence on the sorbet page, unless there is something specifically notable about serving sorbet in fruit skins/coconut shells--which there of course isn't. 94.7.182.212 (talk) 01:55, 30 April 2014 (UTC)

Merge. Givré (adj) means frosted, covered in frost according to About.com. It need not be only a dessert term. One of my favorite restaurants serves Citron Givré as the intermezzo, givré referring to the style in which the lemon sorbet is presented. (Mango would be less pedestrian, and maybe more dessert-ish.) KevinEats encountered an intermezzo at Spago's in 2007 of Cucumber Sorbet (certainly not a dessert) apparently served as givré.
