Bombe glacée
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A bombe glacée or simply a bombe in English, is an ice-cream dessert frozen in a spherical mould so as to resemble a cannonball, hence the name. Escoffier gives over sixty recipes for bombes in Le Guide culinaire.[1] The dessert appeared on restaurant menus as early as 1882.[2]
