There is a widespread misconception that one who is in the midst of a
meal that includes bread is not required to recite a blessing on any
other foods that are consumed in the course of the meal. As we will
see, the Hamotzi blessing recited over bread at the beginning of a
meal only exempts foods and their condiments eaten primarily in order
to satisfy hunger.[1] Other foods will often require their own
blessing even when eaten during the meal.
For example, foods that are eaten following the main course of a
meal, such as deserts, fruits, and sweets, will often require their
own blessing.[2] There is an interesting exception, however. If such
foods are eaten together with bread they will not require their own
blessing. So although fruit eaten as a dessert requires its own
blessing one would not recite a blessing on the fruit if one eats the
fruit with bread in every bite.[3]
