One of my most glorious pies ever.
Almost looks like real bees working away in their
hive:)
One of my friends instantly guessed how the “honeycomb”
is made.
Yup, it’s just bubble-wrap indentations. Quite ingenious
of the Pie Bible!
The bees are chocolate-honey ganache with almond
wings.
The honey–apricot chiffon was a marvelous combo, which
was complemented well by the vanilla–nut crumb crust. It had almost a healthy,
earthy taste (well, comparatively speaking!). The occasional smoosh and crunch of the chocolate
bees were a nice touch, too.
And it wasn’t even the star of the show. We had a little
baking party featuring banana bread, peanut butter brownies, and butterscotch
blondies! (Major sugar rush just looking at the picture!) Sweets, wine, and conversation…
What a nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon. I very well might miss Seoul when
I leave!
I can imagine you still baking away in Rwanda!
ReplyDeleteOh my. It's a real work of art. Even more so than my boat sculpture!
