For generations what was in the little can was passionfruit pulp, nothing more. I don't know when they changed it to pulp and syrup because I hadn't used it for a long time before I found out the hard way.Helennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33131521.post-73401627609407182152007-05-28T21:43:00.000+10:002007-05-28T21:43:00.000+10:00Thanks, Mel!

I agree with you on the passionfruit pulp thing, and hadn't realised why there was no tang until I read your post. Your yoyo's do look beautiful though!Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13505123177267709254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33131521.post-91404297380936277282007-05-28T14:18:00.000+10:002007-05-28T14:18:00.000+10:00Thanh7580, I'm not sure what filling would be bett...Thanh7580, I'm not sure what filling would be better. I reckon a fruit jam would taste great, but might leave the biscuits a bit soggy. I hope someone else might have a better idea for you!<BR/><BR/>Thanks, ilingc. Enjoy your next batch of yo-yos, I hope you can ration them out over a few days despite the temptation. :-)Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07147906610629741961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33131521.post-42968599539564886462007-05-28T13:08:00.000+10:002007-05-28T13:08:00.000+10:00I can't believe they resisted the yo-yo temptation...I can't believe they resisted the yo-yo temptations!

It might be worth trying this biscuit recipe on its own or with a different icing recipe. Perhaps I'll send a request for my mum's recipe and we can try those next!Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07147906610629741961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33131521.post-15514084569321280792007-05-27T21:16:00.000+10:002007-05-27T21:16:00.000+10:00Cindy, I made the ones that Ilingc had on her post...Cindy, I made the ones that Ilingc had on her post. They are so so rich. I overcooked the biscuits a little so they had a slightly burnt flavour but otherwise it was still nice.<BR/><BR/>I think Ilingc's version is a bit too rich for my liking. I need to find a slightly lighter version. <BR/><BR/>Do you recommend one particular recipe?thanh7580https://www.blogger.com/profile/12101572834580539226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33131521.post-24552302305313062002007-05-27T20:24:00.000+10:002007-05-27T20:24:00.000+10:00These look absolutely gorgeous.
