I wasn't sure if I should open a new thread for the 2020 Christmas bakery.
Obviously I decided to continue this one.
So, welcome everybody to my 2020 results. I started today with some cookies, well, 2 layers of cookies filled with marzipan and grapefruit jam, covered in dark chocolate and a sugared walnut on top.


Same as last year I thought it would be fun to share our baking results for the Christmas season here.
