Pastries: in specific....THE BISMARCKMy submission for the Calypso Moon Artist Movement April challenge. Bad... bad...bad ...umm..you aren't going to eat all of that by yourself, are you? food.
I know, to look at me you just wouldn't believe it. It's ok. Life is full of surprises like that.
So.. taking it from the top...crispy deep fried dough, filled with raspberry jam, coated with powdered sugar.... swoon
From the Empress Bakery (just over the way which is completely in the range of the everyday walk and I don't) Bismarck! oh yummy. Because why? Because they still fry them in lard. So they taste like they did in the 'olden' days. When grandma made donuts, which was... just a sec I will phone her... and ask... once a year!
Apparently this delectability is called a Bismarck only on the Canadian Prairies! It is also known as krapfen, Berlinner, or a jelly donut. Also, on the plate, is a type of Danish pastry cinnamon almond carameled sugar deliciousness. I love it when the pastry tastes, and that includes texture, as good as it looks.
They make fantastic farmer's rye bread, as well, at that bakery.
I love food.
To our health! Cheers.
-they make a soft puff crunch sound but... you get the idea.-she says, almost incomprehensibly, as she licks her fingers.
