I was feeling a bit antsy and there wasn't a thread yet at 22 past midnight.

Have a great day everyone. May you and the animals of the DT who like sunbathing get some sun.

Lately I've been indulging in Bakers Delight's custard teatimes. It's like a pull-apart that consists of soft fluff mini bread scrolls joined together and infused with a delicious creamy custard and a delectable sticky icing and dusted with desiccated coconut topping (like a Boston bun).

Can be enjoyed anytime of the day but somehow tastes better late at night when everyone has gone to bed. Luckily I have a regular dealer who can hook me up with a discounted loaf at a moments notice (provided she's working that day).

Here's what's left of last night's session

I miss Baker's Delight.

Ooh yum. Maybe I need to swing past Baker's today...

Be prepared to bring your wallet. They are NOT cheap these days!

I think you do. I'd like these to stay in production for a really long time.

@CEOofmyhouse56 @underwatermagpies You inspired me to stop by the local Baker's Delight for lunch.

They didn't have any of those custard buns with coconut flakes (I looked!), but I did get a cheese and tomato bun.
