I’m the same with things in the freezer – honestly, I can’t really tell the difference if it’s been wrapped up properly to avoid staleness and freezer burn. Yum, the apple tart and coconut raspberry cake sound soooo good!

Oh my lord! Those look utterly gorgeous – really nice and light, but they must such a delicious flavour.

I always wondered what freezer tastes like? I swear I find things in my freezer designed to freeze for only a month that I surely threw in there a year ago. Never really noticed anything different… Freezer burn maybe? Oh yeah you nailed puff pastry – I’ll go by your instructions if I do try it! And no, surprisingly it wasn’t at all coconuty. I only used it cause canned coconut cream I have, fresh cream I don’t, but I was hoping for the flavor to come though, which it didn’t really. This is the same caramel I poured over the coconut raspberry cake – it complemented it perfectly.

Thanks Katherine! It all just kinda goes out the window when you simply have no other option eh.

I have this on my “to make” list, too (which I can say about pretty much everything on Smitten Kitchen, actually). Could you taste the coconut cream in the caramel much? It sounds delicious. And 18 months expired?!!! Yikes. (Although if it’s frozen, what’s really going to happen to it, other than it tasting like freezer? Glad to hear that it didn’t! And also, puff pastry from scratch isn’t very difficult, just kind of time consuming!)

Looks delicious Christina! I have developed a different interpretation of expiry dates as well since moving to NW! I love the photo of the tart all cut up perfectly. Nice job.

Yes.. just my thoughts! If the store doesn’t bring in some non-expired puff pastry next time I need it, I sure will be making my own!

Now that’s a lovely, lovely tart! I’ve never made puff pastry and I’m not sure I want too since the flavor of the boxed one is just fine by me.. but after so many months? That’s crazy that it still keeps!
