First post here. And I'm ashamed to acknowledge that it'll be somewhat blasphemous. Those of weak disposition, or on a low sugar-pre-lunch slump be warned.
I'm waiting to kick the season off officially next week, but was lulled into temptation by a 'Mince Slice" with a crumble top at Benugos. In my mind it was sufficiently removed from a recognisable mincer to be well within the bounds of a standard 'mid afternoon treat' with maybe a hint of a nod of things to come next week. The problem is... it was lovely.
Perhaps a smidgen on the sweet side, but excellent ratios of mince and pastry with that warm satisfying tingle. Have I sinned or should I take this as a fair warning that perhaps it is time I kicked the season off in earnest, if a little early, to avoid further temptations? Please help.
