While many of us fancy opening a cafe or bakery, very few of us get to realise this dream and actually have success. This morning we celebrate the success of Kim Evans at Little & Friday and Kim will join us in studio to talk about setting up and running a small business with advice for those considering their options.
Kim is a wonderful pastry success and her new Little and Friday Book has recipes to share.
We will be talking about your favourite pastry treats. Be it pies, tarts, croissants etc, we would love to hear your favourite recipes.
Figs are ripening in the north, as are Tahitian limes. When you have a whole tree of quinces or ripe limes what do you do?
These fig, prosciutto and blue cheese pastries have a sweet, salty, sharp contrast in all one bite and are perfect for entertaining.
If you feel like drying your figs then try our wonderful fig and walnut shortbread recipe.
