   In English 'regalia' refers to any type of elaborate formal dress and   
   dress accessories, so "Peaches on Regalia" might reasonably stretched to   
   mean the sort of elaborate peach-based desert dish that might be served   
   at the end of a formal banquet.   
      
   Anyhow, thats how I've always read it.
