Recipe: Sous Vide Cake
Sous vide cake batter is an easy way to prep an essential kitchen cornerstone, in particular when you're aiming for dense and moist rather than light and fluffy. Sous vide cake is a great base for bespoke designs and cute accompaniments to dinner. Using half-pint canning jars allows for thin pucks or thick slabs that can be arranged and decorated however you like!
As always, we would suggest some fresh fruit to go along with things - especially if you choose to go hard on the chocolate.

Recipe: Sous Vide Rhubarb Jam
Jam has a short life span in our household - no matter your shade of marmalade or raspberry. A personal favourite has always been rhubarb jam. Strawberries add a delightful sweetness, but rhubarb on itself is rich and tart. Mix with yogurt for an impromptu grab and go yogurt cup!

Recipe: Sous Vide Cheesecake in a Jar
Traditionally, cheesecake is made with a faux-water bath. Using sous vide innovates on this history by offering 360 degrees of steady heat, precise temperature control, and hands-off cooking. Even better, the base for cheescake is constant - allowing for a mix and match in just one batch. Top with blueberries for the traditional, strawberries and caramel, or something else entirely. The world is yours, and there's cheesecake for dessert.

Recipe: Sous Vide Creme Brulee
Creme Brulee can be intimidating for even experienced kitchen cooks. Custard is extremely sensitive to heat, which makes it a perfect pairing for the fine temperature control of sous vide cooking. Make sure to experiment with infusions like rosewater, espresso and the like to make the brulee you want to see in the world.

Recipe: Sous Vide Chocolate Ice Cream
Chocolate ice cream is a family favourite made easy with sous vide. Fine temperature control take the guess work out, and put the flavour back in. Even better, making ice cream at home means that you can add kinds of extras - from savoury to sweet.

Sous Vide Pot de Crème: Chocolate & White Chocolate Macadamia
The taste of this scrumptious and decadent dessert is only matched by how insanely easy it is to make. These portion-sized desserts are the perfect solution to wow your dinner guests or make birthday parties a breeze.
Sous Vide Cheesecake
Similarly to the Crème Brûlée, these mini cheesecakes are also made in 4oz canning jars. Kids absolutely love them! I use a simple graham cracker crust at the base of the jar - if you have the time, pre-baking the crust in the jars for 10 minutes helps develop a traditional cheesecake crust. However, simply adding the crust mixture without baking still results in an amazing and fun dessert. When finished, top the dessert with your favorite fruit!
Sous Vide Bananas Foster
Bananas foster is an all-time great dessert, and sous vide takes it to the next level! You will first need to make a rum sauce (be sure to bring it to a boil as described in order to remove most the alcohol) to use with this meal.
Sous Vide Red Wine Poached Pears
Red wine poached pears are elegantly delicious while also appearing as a work of art on your plate.
