Star Anise Biscuits with Strawberry Sorbet • Reach for the sky with this shooting star of a dessert! Tantalise your tastebuds with a luminary, sweet supernova cluster of deliciousness.
The Star Fruit (or Carambola) • This fruit got its name because it is shaped like a five-point star. It grows on the Averrhoa Carambola tree, in abundance, in East Asia. There are several different types; some are green in colour giving a sweet but more sour taste, the large yellow ones have a sweeter flavour.
