Dessert sauces are flavorful liquids used to enhance sweet dishes, adding moisture, richness, and visual appeal. They can be made from a variety of ingredients such as fruits, chocolate, caramel, or creams, and range from smooth and thick to light and drizzling. Common examples include chocolate ganache, fruit coulis, caramel sauce, and custard. These sauces complement desserts like ice cream, cakes, and panna cotta, elevating their taste and presentation. The choice and consistency of a sauce can influence the overall dessert experience, making them a versatile component in pastry and confectionery arts.
