great british bake off: mary berry's fondant fancies

seeing as it is Tuesday and The Great British Bake Off is on tonight i thought i would share with you my mum (Sue) and I's bake off we has last Saturday....

the mission was to re-create the amazing Mary Berry's french fondant fancies, having watched the GBBO contestants attempt these last year and nearly wetting myself with laughter, we knew what we were getting ourselves into, however we did not expect it to take up an entire afternoon. Was it worth it, well take a look .....

we were pretty impressed with the end result and they did taste amazing, my office can vouch for this as we only had a spare 50 up for grabs...
