Though I question some of your classifications. E.g. if crepe(chocolate)!= chocolate(crepe), it should be possible to make two yummy deserts like: chocolate(dyhydrate(crepe))-> something like a kit-kat or inverted pirouline; and crepe(heat(chocolate)) or heat(chocolate(crepe)) -> crepe with melted chocolate. which would be the correct formulation? Regardless, it's a win. Brilliant!

Never thought of such a good idea. This makes the field of taxonomy accessible for everybody. If you see all these nice desserts you realize that taxonomy is not a boring science at all. In the birth year of Linnaeus this is far most the most creative thought about taxonomies. Greetz Evert Hi there,

This is absolutely brilliant. Never thought of such a good idea. This makes the field of taxonomy accessible for everybody. If you see all these nice desserts you realize that taxonomy is not a boring science at all. In the birth year of Linnaeus this is far most the most creative thought about taxonomies.

Shannen: Ah, interesting, I haven't encountered frozen custard. I've made something that <i>tasted</i> like ice-cream by freezing custard, though; fun to find out I accidentally made something else entirely.

Frozen Custard isn't actually ice cream, though. It's a dessert all of its own called (Surprise!) Frozen Custard I love this.
