Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

When I've cooked GF for friends I've opted for not trying to line a tin but doing it more like a galette - so a circle (ish) of pastry with filling in the middle and the side of the circle folded partly over the filling. Otherwise it reminds me of trying to handle rich sweet pastry, impossibly brittle.

I didn't make the pastry. Life's too short. I don't love my Mum enough ;)

If bought was an option I'd eat more pastry Linds. :-) Unfortunately the gf ready made pastry I've tried (just about everything on the market) isn't worth the money or calories.

That's my experience of gf pastry too sallykate.

Pix - gf sponge cakes are relatively easy once you understand the science.

My friend does a v tolerant GF pastry, I'll ask for the recipe.

UK cocoa is Dutch processed, just needs specifying in US recipes.
