A sweet young couple at my church just had a baby boy and named him Aslan š¦
Iām a big C.S. Lewis fan and have loved the Narnia books since I was a kid, so I couldnāt resist baking something special for their family. His mom once told me she loves spiced desserts, so I decided on a chai-inspired tart.
The crust and decorations are cardamom-cinnamon pĆ¢te sucrĆ©e, and the fillings are: 1) a crispy base layer of feuilletine with caramelized white chocolate and almond pralinĆ©, 2) tart apple compote, 3) chai-honey crĆ©meux, and 4) a lightly sweet pectin glaze.

Iām actually mad because I tried baking something āsimpleā last week and somehow burned toastā¦ meanwhile youāre out here casually sculpting a literal masterpiece š I would 100% feel guilty cutting into this and still eat the whole thing anyway
Looks way better than Turkish Delight, to be honest. This is what Edmund should have asked for. It’s beautiful :o)
Wow itās so beautiful!! I never read any C.S Lewis books but Aslan means lion in Turkish and itās a very very popular boy name. I know Turkish parents would go crazy for this hahaha
OMG, this belongs in an art book! It’s stunning! I hope the family enjoyed it! š„°
āCourage, dear heart.ā – Aslan had me in his grips ever since that quote š
Your work is STUNNING!
