Canadian Sweet Treats Panel Roundup and Recipes!

Alison was delighted to be on a panel on Sunday, December 3rd titled Canadian Sweet Treats: Food Experts Debate the Classics
Joined by Rose Murray, Elizabeth Baird, Dawn Woodward, Nettie Cronish and Elizabeth Driver the group had a lively and light hearted debate on the following treats:

Alison debated the merits of Lemon Squares and after a tasting by the audience of all the treats, a vote was taken and Alison's spirited defence of Lemon Squares took the day! Although it should be noted that due to a kitchen misshap the delicious Carrot Pudding could not be sampled. Probably a first where a Butter Tart recipe entered a contest and didn't win!

Enjoy these classic desserts this holiday season courtesy of some of Canada's finest cooks & authors.
