Didn't need a biscuit, found a citrus Madeira cake with toffee peel just laying around #lets_get_technical #GBBO pic.twitter.com/ASL8uzSd3A

I'll be honest this was probably my favourite part of this bake, all that citrus syrup goodness!
So now it is completely enclosed in butter...is now a good time to mention my funeral wishes??

Just doing calculations on chills/rest 2hr15m, so they leave 15mins to make dough, do the folds, slice, shape and bake?

These arlettes were far from perfection but it was worthwhile giving them a try.
Have you made arlettes before?
I love that they look like the things us humans use to hear with, and therefore hereby rename them Earlettes...
