Watch out Paul Holywood.

After watching Paul & Mary's Christmas Master Class this week,I decided that the festive Couronne ticked all the boxes for me and that I should start baking again

Here it is,my take on a festive Couronne Problem is that it is too edible,and extremely rich.

Wowsers…..that looks lush!

 

Looks like the red slugs like it!

 

Looks yummy......see the obese/disability post!.........see! Happens everywhere!

 

I will help you dispose of that if you like!!!
Cheers, Dave

 

Looks wonderful We'll be over!!! xxx

 

Oh it is Enriched pastry spread with mincemeat,covered with a layer of marzipan with orange zest in it,rolled up like a swiss roll,split in half lengthways then twisted together and formed into a circle and baked.
Then brushed with apricot glaze and,when cool decorated with water ice,glace cherries and split pecan nuts.
You'll have to hurry

Looks fab, I ended up getting the ingredients for the white choc/ginger cheesecake
Think the daughter is going to make it tomorrow (well a gluten free version)

 

so that is what a couronne is, a weeks calories in every mouthful..
but who cares, when it's treat time..
