Resistance is futile. Pretty sure in a few days almonds will be seen as authentic and essential.

Yes to all of the above :wink:

Marzipan.

As everyone knows, I’m all for innovation not imitation. Remember, I was the visionary who first suggested, not the normal rasperry jam but a generous layer of apricot in it’s stead.

A little marzipan added to either the pastry or heated as an oil and annointed over the pie.

I’ll get me a block of it tomorrow.

Go for it, I say.

Most of the posters in this thread stand for sweet FA these days. Anything goes. Especially when it’s your little mate’s nut encrusted pies with internal dairy, at yer cozy private bake-off in far-flung corners of the land.

You are far-flung of course, but have no mates, so might cop a bit of flack.

How are Gregg’s mince slices this year?

Never been near Greggs this festive season, strangely.

May rectify that tomorrow and purchase a box.

Stay off the green it’s poison. It will eat you up and turn you to everything you thought age and experience wouldn’t bring. But without the renaissance.

It’s only far flung when you can be arsed to turn up
A deadly sin for clarity

It’s absolutely beautiful that the season of goodwill is the only time the meatmen come close to open warfare.
