Five Dessert Trends For 2011

The National Restaurant Association recently listed its predictions — based on a poll of American chefs — of 2011's top five dessert trends. They're not exactly earth-shattering, given that many of these "trends" have already been standard desserts in many Kansas City restaurants for the past several years.

The upcoming trends, according to the poll:

1. Artisan or house-made ice cream

2. Bite-sized or mini desserts

3. Dessert flights or combos

4. Deconstructed classic desserts

5. Savory desserts
