| Alleluia! |
A rather unconventional arrangement of marzipan balls on this year's Simnel Cake. And the reason for this? Well I took my eye off the marzipan as it browned under the grill. It was easy enough to scrape the offending burnt bit off but it left an unattractive rough surface. So I rearranged 'the apostles' in the the centre. I think it makes them look more friendly!
Huddled together in the upper room!
ReplyDeleteThe added advantage was that the middle didn't look empty without Mary Berry's crystallised flowers!
DeleteBrilliant rescue! My FIL always said that he felt the mark of a good cook was one who could rescue a culinary disaster. Some of mine can't be recovered though :-)
ReplyDeleteI've had a few of those too. And the burnt scrapings tasted rather delicious.
