Mascarpone Beer Chocolate Pudding

Smooth, velvety, chocolate-y and so lip smacking tasty!

Though I am a self proclaimed ever hungry person, this pudding did test that to the max. I just wanted to finish photographing just so that I could eat a bowlful of this pudding. It looked so smooth and silky-yum, yum and yum. The other thing that was keeping me interested was the photography style- I was quite enjoyed exploring the the dark and moody concept. Can you believe these pictures were taken from an iPhone, with some help from Lightroom, of course😊

If you are afraid that the Beer will give this pudding a bitter after taste, don't be-as beer only helps to build on the chocolate side of the dessert. I actually was very happy with the combo as honestly, I expected it to go sideways, somewhat.
