Cherry and Almond Bakewell Florentine Slice
Sophisticated bakewell featuring soft biscuit base with Florentine topping, incorporating five different cherry varieties: dried sour cherries, maraschino cherries, glacé cherries, plus black cherry and damson for fruity berry flavor complexity. Dialog: {Kimberley}: "So this is for the topping. I've got dried sour cherries in there. I've got some maraschino cherries just for color. And then I've also got some normal glacé cherries. And then inside I'm using black cherry and damson, which aren't cherries but have a really good kind of fruity berry flavor."
{Paul Hollywood}: "Bakes very good. It's got a nice strong color underneath it as well." {Mary Berry}: "It's nice to see those layers. It looks very tempting." {Paul Hollywood}: "I really like it because the texture of the Florentine is excellent. It's got a good chew to it, and you bite through and they're all equal. They look very pretty. It's been well thought out. Well done."
