With berries coming into season, this is one of James’ favorite recipes for them. This also proves that not everything he bakes is chocolate.
These were made for the last morning production meeting of “The Master Builder” before they moved into the theatre for tech rehearsals on Tuesday. No wonder James is always working!!
