I had completely forgotten which recipe I used, but after following this recipe today, my suspicions were confirmed. This is the best cherry bakewell recipe of all time! I think I used raspberry jam last time but cherry and plum this time, but regardless of the jam the tastes and textures are spot on.

I found it while looking for a nice cherry bakewell tart recipe and judging by all the comments on this threat I have found the one to use!<br />I am a keen little baker myself and only started baking cakes in the last year and seem to enjoy it a lot and all my guinea pigs seem to love my creations too, which is always nice. I am actually being made to bake these bakewell tarts by request! I am very much looking forward to trying your recipe but I wanted to thank you in advance.<br />I can almost guarantee I will be back looking for other recipes of yours to try too :) Although, I cant seem to find where I can subscribe to your site? xToni Pnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-430441346293872555.post-37017726627202580822013-09-09T15:11:56.207+01:002013-09-09T15:11:56.207+01:00Followed your instructions and my bakewells turned...Followed your instructions and my bakewells turned out great!

Just thought I'd share that I have never baked in my life and yet my daughter said she'd LOVE a giant cherry bakewell for her 18th birthday so I had to give it a go. I am sooo glad I did and I'm now feeling very pleased with myself haha<br /><br />I doubled everything and (due to the 8" foil pastry cases being so shallow) I ended up with 3 cakes! Shame ;) <br />One decorated with a '1' and the other an '8' in cherries of course! My daughter loved them and we all loved sharing the spare one :). Deeeelish!

First ...I doubt I'll get a reply from this but:<br />First off thank you! I used to be addicted to the Mr Kipling cherry bakewells but I had to give up sugar completely about 4 years ago and I've really missed them! I have a sugar substitute that I am allowed to have and I can't wait to try and make some!<br />My question is, I have bought some pre-made pastry tartlets because the last time I tried to make pastry it failed miserably! As these will already be part cooked will I be able to use them or will they burn if I try?<br /><br />--Anna MariaAnna Marianoreply@blogger.com
