I was asked to bring a dessert to a Jepordy game night and the only thing I can think of is, "what is I have no idea." She wants it to be the prize.
Any ideas fro my ladies who have all the answers?
thanks,
jen

You could do a sheet cake and make it look like the jeopardy board with piped icing.
I was trying to think of some sort of play on Alex Tribek's name, but all I could think of was the tri in trifle. So that's a dud.

So think of a dessert and then make it the answer......give me a minute If so, an example would be category: Desserts; Answer: This Italian dessert is made of ladyfingers dipped in coffee, layered with a whipped mixture of egg yolks and mascarpone cheese, and flavored with cocoa; Question: What is Tiramisu? Then I'd go buy one to bring.  |

I like the idea of having the answer being dessert related and the question being the dessert you make..
Something like "These modern-day delicacies were once made as an inexpensive substitute for pricey forest-found savouries"
The question, "What are truffles?".

Why would I want a dessert as a prize? Why WOULDN'T I want dessert as a prize!!? I dunno. I'm on a diet? I'm GF? I don't like chocolate? I can't eat nuts? Could be any number of reasons.
I win and I'm vegan. Here's your éclair cake! Aw, sad me.

If that's the case then give it to the first runner up and on the way home stop by the bakery or store and treat yourself to your absolute favorite treat that you can eat. |

Why would I want a dessert as a prize? She didn't ask if anyone thought this was a good idea. If you insist on giving your opinion, at least pair it with an actual answer to the question. OP, if you have the time, the cake in @mytnice's post is terrific - especially if the dessert is meant to be shared by everyone. If it is only meant to be the prize for the one person, then I think tiramisu or truffles would be great because the Jeopardy questions would be easy. Sounds like a fun party! |

This multi-layer dessert often features whipped cream, buttercream, fruit or jam.
What is a torte!
Unveil super awesome looking torte with a giant flourish like a Price is Right model!

I was thinking of the wrong game, darn it! What popped into my head was a cake frosted like the colored 'pie pieces' in Trivial Pursuit... lol!!
I like the idea of coming up with a dessert and pairing it with the Final Jeopardy question. You could come up with a question relating to Toll-House cookies, or... dang, this is hard! does Jeopardy have a website that you could browse through??

Color me a tad confused so is the dessert for the winner to take home?
Or is it just for fun and then you cut it and everyone gets a piece.
That would make a different to what I made
