You're thinking of American cheesecake and that was big in the 70s ... remember those packet mixes with the sachet of fruity gunk for the topping? <br /><br />I'm wondering how long the tiramisĂș shosp will last?

I was baffled by shops selling cupcakes (They're fairy cakes and they don't need half a ton of buttercream on them!)<br /><br />I'm afraid a lot of things about the modern world baffle me.Vronni's Style Meanderingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17122302881528071270noreply@blogger.com
