Rhubarb & Raspberry Trifle

I have one final sweet offering for you before I sign off for Christmas and a few weeks of eating too much and doing too little - a rather impressive Rhubarb & Raspberry Trifle (if I do say so myself).

Meringues with Roasted Strawberries & Rosewater Cream

Fruit Mince & Frangipane Pies

Fruit mince pies are one of the items on my mandatory Christmas cook-list (along with gingerbread and meringues) - my mum always makes them in the days leading up to Christmas and it is a tradition I have adopted also.
