Good evening, my friends!
There are just a few hours left before the deadline for SHF #35 passes. Get your entries in by midnight tonight. For those of you that may not make the deadline, just let me know and I’ll see if I can’t give you a bit of a Cream Puff reprieve!
I give you my final creation for SHF #35: The Beatiful Fig.
It’s a sweet focaccia topped with fresh figs and walnuts that have been drizzled with Grand Marnier and sprinkled liberally with brown sugar. Once baked, I blessed each fig with a dollop of mascarpone and then drizzled the entire mess with gorgeous honey!
For those of you that have already contributed to SHF #35, I thank you for your brilliance!
Ciao!

That focaccia looks fab. Sadly, I only just started my blog (talk about being behind the eight ball…), so I’m missing out on this SHF
. But at least I’ll be able to enjoy other people’s results on your beautiful blog!

Wow, Puff — can’t wait to see all the little figgies!
Your pastries look marvelous. I’m like you…give me my butter! It’s just hard to get the same taste and texture without it.
