Black Damask Cardstock

of Lords tea cakes, chocolate and citron steamed


If there was a tea that still retains a bit of mystery to me is the rooibos. Red Tea, naturally caffeine free, I find it moderately palatable natural. However, flavored, it becomes a very pleasant companion for the palate and for those who like to drink tea in the evening instead of tea. Magnet particularly bergamot, tea of Lords "Rooibos" Palace of teas he got it. This is an Earl Grey with the powerful scent of bergamot.

To give him the reply, I made cupcakes with chocolate steamed from a recipe I swiped at Julie Andrieu (I'll tell you soon) and revisited in my way adding candied citron. The steaming gives a soft texture but not crispy on top and may confuse some people when it comes to cake. The taste of tea blends with the aromas of chocolate and candied citron with happiness. Without sugar or butter, knows that sweetness longer be any light ...
