Ekt die resep al baie lank sedert ek dit by n high tea van n vriendin geëet het en het die resep by haar gebedel, iets wat sy nie maklik deel nie. Het dit al paar keer gemaak en dis flop vry. Ek het geen idee waar sy dit vandaan gekry het nie.
This recipe must be shared. It’s very delicious and ideal for high teas.
