Chapter Seven
Summers In Paris
Floral lavender is sweetened with fresh, tart apricots and encased in flaky pie dough reminiscent of summers in Paris. These pop-tarts are unlike anything you’ve had before, just close your eyes, take a bite, and let this dessert transport you.
When I tell you these pop-tarts are amazing, I mean it, even if you’re not a fan of floral or lavender I promise these will blow your mind. They taste exactly like you would imagine summer to taste, so they’re perfect for the current cold, gloomy days! The taste of tart apricots and a bouquet of flowers and I swear they have a hint of sunshine baked right in. The secret ingredient for these tarts is Favols Apricot Lavender jam which bottles up the tastes of the warmer months from the south of France so you can enjoy them even when it's snowing!
Pie dough- These tarts call for a flaky dough that pairs well with the flavors of this jam, so it's fairly simple in its general ingredients. Just make sure that the butter is properly combined and kept cold once it's rolled out to ensure it bakes properly.
Jam- The star of this show is the lavender apricot jam, but if you can't get your hands on it, mix together apricot jam with food grade lavender! Or just replace this jam with whichever you prefer.
Icing- The jam icing for these poptarts is just exceptional. The powdered sugar base of this icing guarantees that snappy shiny look that store brand pop tarts have. The icing ties all the flavors of the pop tart together, and comes together in seconds.
