I wrote down what the waiter told me about how it was made, and it turns out he was right about all of it.

Made it, ate it, felt proud of myself. That is the review.

Took me twice the stated time because I am slow, but the result was right.

I made a half batch as a test and immediately regretted not making the full one.

Made a version for a guest with an intolerance by swapping the one ingredient that was a problem. It held together better than I feared. Slightly different, still lovely.

Honestly the best thing I have made this year, and I have made a lot of things this year.

I am genuinely a bad cook and this came out well, which I did not expect.

It kept far better than I expected. I portioned it and it lasted well past the evening it was made for.

The instructions are written by somebody who has actually stood in a kitchen. The order of operations makes sense and nothing is left to be guessed.

Less sweet than the supermarket version and much better for it.

Very forgiving. I made at least two mistakes and it still worked.
