So, my guilty secret - I don't find making fruit 'cheeses' easy - but I keep trying. In 2023 I finally made something I was pleased with which is Pear & Black Pepper Paste. It was from a recipe in a magazine and I felt with that title I wouldn't feel too bad if that is all I achieved - again. However, it did result in a delicious jelly that I did suceed in slicing, quite sticky but I guess it isn't supposed to be made to that level of 'jelly-baby' dryness as it would probably lose all of its character. So we are going to try together, in the spirit of adventure and if we end up with some dishes of very firm jam then we can still eat it. It all looks so perfect and easy to achieve in magazines! I will give guidance for some great flavour combos and then all you need is some delicious cheese to eat it with.

I have just had a ball of a time making the Christmas drinks along with you! I made them all (other than the coffee one, as we've got a stash of Tia Maria in the cupboard!) and experimented with a non-alcoholic gin for the marmalade one - will be interesting to see how it turns out! All the others will be happily enjoyed by my alcohol consuming friends and family (Sam has already had to try a bit of the Baileys style one as we ran out of jars - shame!) and I thoroughly enjoyed the session!
