Wow, never had Baked Alaska?  Not everyone serves it flaming though I
suppose.  Basically it's ice cream surrounded on all four sides by slightly
stale angelfood or sponge cake with brandy sprinkled on it then covered in a
good half inch or better of meranguie and baked for a few minutes (I use a
torch) to brown.  Some folks stop there and serve.  Some of us pour a little
brandy over it at the tableside and torch it.

I have done flaming banana boat sundaes too.
