Tips & Notes

Pro tips

Use a bar spoon to pour slowly and control layer separation; angle the spoon and pour over its back to prevent mixing.
Keep all ingredients chilled before layering; warm ingredients will blend instead of stratify.
Pour the heaviest ingredient first (crème de cacao) and lightest last (sweet cream) to maintain visible layers.
Use fresh sweet cream or heavy cream rather than sour cream for a cleaner, richer finish.

Substitutions

Crème Yvette → Crème de violette (changes violet intensity and profile)
Old Mr. Boston Five Star Brandy → Cognac or another brandy (adjust for proof and smoothness)

Common Questions

How do you layer Angel's Kiss?

Pour ingredients in order over the back of a bar spoon: crème de cacao, crème Yvette, brandy, then sweet cream on top. Each floats due to density differences.

Can you make Angel's Kiss without crème Yvette?

Crème Yvette is difficult to substitute due to its unique violet flavor. Crème de violette is the closest alternative, though it will change the profile.
