heavenly bisques

The discovery of exceptions to one's don't-like rules are always very pleasant. So from the same place as the I-don't-like-meringues but these are dreamy I give you - heavenly bisques.

They're ridiculously oversized - one third or possibly a half will do to tame the sweet tooth - the buttercream isn't very buttery (hooray) but tastes so very lovely and smooth of raspberry or pear, the almondy base is both crunchy and chewy in a grand way, it's covered in marzipan that isn't overly sweet.

The three layers compliment eachother so very well and that the buttercream - that I in general very much do not appreciate in pastries, cakes and cookies - is of a very reasonable amount in these delightful bisques.

The bisques fortunate enough ending their days in my residence - before they make some sweet teeth happy and end up in someone's tummy - they even get their own private colour matching guards. Fancy that for fancy bisques.
