Of course, the main ingredient in this month's recipe was beautiful, sweet, pure maple syrup.

For the edible container, I chose to bake tuiles and form them into a bowl shape by draping them over a plastic cup. We had free rein when it came to this part of the challenge.

The mousse, itself, was easy to make, and didn't take a lot of time. It was just about the sweetest, richest thing I've ever tasted! In fact, it was a bit too rich for my taste, although Dan liked it a lot.

To top the dessert, I baked some meringues to a golden brown and let them firm up in the oven after turning it off.

Here is the finished product -- maple mousse in an edible container, topped with a lightly browned meringue dollop.

I love your tuile cups. Tuiles and I don't get along that well, so I am impressed with your dexterity in making these.
I really love your tuiles, they look so adorable and delicious. :)
Lovely presentation of edible containers...
