Jelly Slice - Free of Dairy, Egg, Wheat, Nuts

How to make this delicious Jelly Slice!

At each food-centric celebratory time of the year, we focus on not what we are missing out on but how we can ‘recreate’ a traditional food recipe into a fun and new tradition for our family. This new creation is the brain child of our eldest son who at 14 has found the creativity in the kitchen when it comes to desserts just as much fun as the creativity on the keyboard :-) Thanks beautiful boy for this yum and fun new ‘recreation’ recipe xo
