Man, I wanna slice of that!

Top bit of baking by the looks of that. Definitely improved by the absence of icing and glacé cherries.

Meh!

Don’t disappoint me by telling me you approve of a thin coating of Satan’s smega and some bright red clowns noses besmirching such a quality bit of baking…:rage:

The shortcrust pastry case is really crisp and the filling moist and almondy :smiley: The only problem is, it’s nearly gone :heart_eyes:


Still, never mind, I’ve got this to go at afterwards :sunglasses:

Sirs…Cherry, Not strawberry, Not Raspberry, Not mustard nor Bisto is the bedfellow of the Almond. A cliche admittedly but Cliche’s become Cliche’s due to a perceived and agreed ‘truth’. Prostituting a Raspberry to lie with an almond is bad Juju they are seedy little shysters that compliment chocolate only - Not Almonds.

I fear this world is beyond hope.

We agree on much. But I have to ask, has stronzetto laced your drink with glue? Because here you are simply wrong.

Raspberry is the perfect jam to use here.

I have never heard of a Raspberry bakewell simply because it is a perversion. The Cherry Bakewell however is world renowned. I often eschew mainstreem thinking as it is so often polluted but on this point the plebs have it.

Sometimes splitting hairs makes a delusion of an indulgence
