Hummingbird Cake

Hummingbird Cake

Savannah: "I did a dessert inspired by hummingbird cake. It's actually a banana upside down cake. The banana is bruleed. There's a lime pineapple granita, a rum coconut sauce. It actually comes from Jamaica, but I grew up eating it a lot in the south."


Judges, behind the scenes


"Savannah's hummingbird cake. I like the flavor of the pineapple and the rum." 


"Thought the sauce complemented it really well." 


"I love the salinity in the pineapple sorbet. The dish was kind hearted, and Savannah has a kind hearted style about her food."


Judges Table


"Savannah, I've never had a hummingbird cake. I love salty desserts. That was my favorite part of the dish." 


"I was the kid that takes cake, and I melt ice cream, and it just melts all together. It gave me a childlike memory without ever having hummingbird cake. That was really special for me."
