Hearing from Firebeard in the brioche post reminded me of a splendid concoction he made at Mair’s Big Bake last year:
Looks like it should be in an Italian ice cream parlour but it’s all bread.
Joe and his mate Birdbread are hosting this year’s bread event up in North Yorkshire which we are looking forward to greatly.

I remember eating this as we drove away from West Wales last year – a one off special! Just what did he put in there? I remember apricots…..
One was heavy with cinnamon. I’ve always wanted to say, “Hey Joe, where you going with that bun in your hand …..?”
Looks like a delicious mutant….
Bummer I won’t be there!!!
