Sweet wine, e.g. Moscato d’Asti
2 pounds, 4 ounces Fresh California strawberries, thinly sliced (for garnish)
PREPARATION:
To prepare Strawberry Preserve:
In heavy saucepan, heat strawberries and sugar on medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Cool. Yield: about 1 1/3 cups.

To prepare Strawberry Ice Cream: In medium bowl, whisk together yolks and sugar. In large saucepan, bring milk and cream to boil; pour slowly into yolk mixture, whisking constantly. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture coats back of spoon; strain into bowl. Cool in ice bath, stirring occasionally. Whisk in Strawberry Preserve. Freeze in ice cream machine. Yield: 2 quarts. (Shortcut: Good-quality commercial strawberry ice cream can be substituted.)

To prepare Strawberry Cake:

Heat oven to 350°F. Sift flour, baking soda, and baking powder together; set aside. In mixer, cream butter and sugar with paddle until light and fluffy; add eggs on at a time, scraping bowl down after each addition.

Add 1/2 of flour; mix just until combined. Add sour cream; mix until just combined. Add remaining flour; mix until combined. Fold in Strawberry Preserve. Coat half-sheet pan (cookie sheet) with nonstick spray, line with parchment; spray again. Spread batter evenly on pan; bake about 20 minutes, or until cake is golden brown and springs back when touched. Cool completely.

For Baked Alaska Assembly:

Cut Strawberry Cake into 24 (2 1/2-inch) rounds; place on parchment-lined sheet pan. Scoop 1/4 cup ice cream onto each cake, leaving 1/2–inch border of cake around ice cream. Freeze until ice cream is solidly frozen.

In clean dry bowl, whisk egg whites and sugar gently over simmering water until sugar melts and egg whites are hot to touch. Transfer to mixer bowl, add salt and whisk on high speed until meringue forms stiff glossy peaks. Place in piping bag with 1/2–inch round tip.

Starting at cake base, pipe meringue over ice cream, spiraling up to cover ice cream completely. Store in freezer up to one day. Yield: 24 Baked Alaska’s

To prepare Rhubarb Consommé:

In medium saucepan, combine all; cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes, or until rhubarb is completely tender and falling apart. Strain liquid through fine strainer without pushing on solids. Strain liquid again through chinois (strainer) or coffee filter. Cool and refrigerate. Yield: about 7 cups.

For each serving, to order: Heat oven to 500°F. In small saucepan, heat 1/3 cup strawberries and 1/4 cup Rhubarb Consommé until warm. Place 1 Baked Alaska in oven for 2 minutes, or until meringue is golden brown. Place Baked Alaska in shallow soup dish; pour consommé and strawberries around. Serve immediately. Tip: Brown meringue with propane torch instead of in oven.

Make it yourself it's so easy.

try a shop, it worked for me

at the bakery shop...order it!!

try waitrose

you cant bake Alaska its a state and if you could it would melt. think about the igloos and penguins haha

don't think you can buy it anywhere as shops would find it difficult to store. you may be able to get one in a bakery.
you could make one http://www.waitrose.com/recipe/Baked_Ala...
or ben and jerry's have a new ice cream that is baked alaska flavour!

A couple hundred miles from Washington.

asda
or try this link for the recipe

Asda used to sell it. Make one. Buy a sponge flan base , tip a load of icecream on it and cover the lot with a meringue. Make sure there are no holes in the meringue as the whole point of baked alaska is in its insulation to keep the oven heat away from the icecream centre.

baked alaska

85g sponge flan case
2 tbsp apple juice
4 tbsp cherry, raspberry or strawberry jam
500ml tall tub vanilla ice cream
3 medium egg whites
125g golden caster sugar



1. Put the sponge flan case onto an ovenproof plate. Drizzle with the apple juice, then spoon on the jam and spread it evenly. Run a blunt knife around the sides of the ice cream to help loosen it from the tub. Upturn the ice cream on top of the jammy sponge. Put it carefully on a flat surface in the freezer.
2. Get out an electric whisk or a mixer with a whisk and a large bowl – or use the one that comes with the mixer if there is one. Check that the bowl is very clean and totally dry. Add the egg whites to the bowl, making sure absolutely no yolk gets in there (the meringue won’t work if there is, so remove any with a teaspoon).
3. Whisk the egg whites until they turn white and thick. Lift up the bowl and tip it slightly from side to side: if the egg whites look slightly peaky and slide around they need to be whisked a little more; if they sit in stiff peaks and don’t move, they are ready. Turn the mixer on again and gradually add the sugar, just 1 tablespoon at a time until the meringue is smooth, glossy and stiffly peaking.
4. Get the prepared base out of the freezer. Spread the meringue over the ice cream with a palette knife, making sure it’s covered and the meringue seals the sponge case edge. Return to the freezer for at least 1 hour (although it will happily sit there for up to a day).
5. To serve, preheat the oven to 220°C/ fan200°C/gas 7. Pop the Alaska straight from the freezer into the oven for 3-4 minutes until the meringue is just starting to be tinged brown. Serve immediately.

I would sugest buying it from the nearest grocery store. THe link below shows you the recipe. Besides, Baked Alaska tastes much better hot out of the oven. By the way, if you ever need recipes again just go to cooks.com. It is a recipe search site that will normally get the recipe you are looking for.
