NYC Vignette: What do you Say?????

This is what I ordered for dessert at the fancy restuarant in MOMA:

Lemon Napoleon Exotique Fruit "Brunoise" and "Fromage Blanc" Sorbet.

This is what I thought I was getting:

Some type of lemon sponge cake with fruit and white sorbet ( I wasn't exactly sure.....but this was my best translation of the description)

This is what I got:

Uh......Did I miss something in the description which would indicate I just ordered a phallic/erotic-looking vertical dessert?

What was the pastry chef doing or thinking when he created this and placed it on my plate?? (Perhaps I do not want to know.)

And what do you do with it???

Open wide??? (and possibly get arrested for performing a lewd act on a spongecake in public?)

Knock it over and cut it? (ala Bobbitt?)

NYC....it's always surprising....
