Cannoli

Well we finally did it. Cannoli are one of our very favourite things in the little moon house, and we've been wanting to try and make them ourselves for a long time. So after we found some pastry tubes, we finally took on the cannoli challenge. Its a complex process, and one that definitely requires an assistant, but the final product looks and tastes so good.

Apricot and ginger frangipane tart

This was another Bake Off inspired recipe search that yielded very interesting results. At first it seems a super complicated process but its definitely worth the effort.

Poached Pears

I'd always wanted to make these because they look so pretty, so I finally found a recipe for them and gave it a go. Its a surprisingly simple process as most of it is inactive, waiting for the wine to absorb.
