Every personality has a flavor, and this dessert quiz finds yours. Tell us how you spend Saturday nights, what you wear and what you do when plans fall through, and we'll serve up your match from four American favorites: the crowd-pleasing chocolate brownie, the all-American apple pie, the sophisticated tiramisu and the smooth, reliable cheesecake. Sweet tooth optional, but recommended.
The word dessert comes from the French desservir, meaning to clear the table, because the sweet course arrived after the main dishes were taken away. It entered English around 1600, and Americans have been happily making room for it ever since. Dessert is rarely about hunger. It is about comfort, celebration and tradition, which is why so many families have a signature cake or pie that shows up at every holiday.
Our favorite sweets often reflect our tastes in other areas of life. Whether you order dessert every time or only on birthdays, share it or guard it, and stick with one favorite or try whatever is new can say a lot about how you approach treats in general. Those preferences make dessert a natural fit for a personality quiz.
Here you'll answer seven questions about Saturday nights, parties, vacations, style and your coffee order. Each answer points toward one of four desserts, and whichever gets the most of your picks is your result. There are no wrong answers, and this is a sweet bit of fun rather than any kind of psychological test, so answer honestly and share your result with the friends you'd split a dessert with.
Personality quizzes on QuizPlays are just for fun, not psychological tests.
