Please explain:
1. the blackberry cobbler made from scratch
2. a tough call= a difficult conservation?
3.a dessert platter

Thank you.

1. = the blackberry cobbler manufactured from the very beginning (not precooked, I assume). You can google "blackberry cobbler" to get a better idea of what it looks/tastes like.
2. = a difficult decision.
3. = a plate for dessert.
