Note: The nutrition information in this recipe has been corrected. Pie Pops Alber Elbaz speaks about “lightness” during interviews before his collections. I think his summation of what women need seems pretty accurate. Yes, we need lightness/ease/mobility. I love the way Elbaz makes clothes. His Lanvin spring 2008 collection made me cry. I like lightness. The different flavors. Cinnamon, Sugar, cornstarch, these three were the main ingredients used to hype the filling. I made blackberry filling with just sugar and cornstarch. I label all my homemade jams and fillings. With the same lolipop stick, I’ve sealed the pie, making indents all around the pop. Very crucial to slather egg whites on pie exterior. Blackberry Apple. Pumpkin Pies to go. In case you’re into saving desserts, this is fridge friendly too. <a onclick="javascript:pageTracker.

Sticky Toffee Pudding in a Jar I’ve jumped on this dessert in a jar bandwagon a little, finding 250 mL glass jars the perfect solution for cakes you’d eat with a spoon anyway – pudding cakes and the like, which you serve up in bowls, fighting your family for the sticky edges and goo or nibbling at it yourself before they even know it’s there. Sticky toffee pudding is the perfect candidate for serving in glass jars – everyone gets the same ratio of cake to sticky toffee, and you can lob on a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream before bringing them to the table. It winds up a warm sticky toffee pudding sundae in a jar, and what in the world is better than that? Like cupcakes, desserts in jars are also ideal to serve at parties – guests can eat them standing up, and you don’t have to worry about cutting a cake and having enough small plates to serve the slices on.
