Bear Claws

Making Danish pastry; is there anything so wonderful as a block of French butter wrapped in cardamom-infused dough?


 With dabs of remonce (buttery, sugary almond paste)


 How many claws does a bear have again?


 Actually, my first time not only making but eating a bear claw. 
Very almondy!

 Awhile back, I remade the Mango Passion Tart.
Some pies are impossible to make here because the ingredients are unavailable.
This is NOT one of them -- mangos and passion fruit are just everywhere!
It's a nice trade-off ;)



A sunny treat!
