A selection of some of the desserts from this months tastings: salted caramel and chocolate brownie, lemon posset, a variety of afternoon tea style treats, dark chocolate tart and lemon tart with blackberry coulis
A lovely review for Saturdays dinner party
“Dear Simon and Holly
I just wanted to say a big thank you on behalf of all of us for the excellent food on Saturday. We had very good comments all round and really enjoyed everything you created. The food tasted wonderful, was served very efficiently and really helped to make the evening a success. Thank you also for your reassurance beforehand and efforts you made to deal with the dietary requirements.
Thanks for all your work on the evening.
Best wishes
Andrew “
