#Crowley may possibly have bribed me with almond croissants

Hello Mr Fell ! , I don’t know if you’ve already been asked this but what is your favorite human treat? Wether it be candy or just a cake what’s your favorite? also if it’s something like cake do you pair it with tea? ( btw I think Crowleys Bentley looked quite good in yellow perhaps you should get a vehicle in that same color Mr Fell? Last thing but I hope you have fantastic day Mr Fell :D - Sincerely Mikey )
Having to choose just one favourite is impossible! I do have a fondness for anything with almonds, though. So:
Battenberg, for the marzipan and the way the slight sharpness of apricots in the jam offsets the sweetness.
Pastissus biscuits — The late Mister Demurtas used to make them for the traders’ meetings, bless him
Mandorlato di Cologn Veneta (my favourite torrone)
Bakewell pudding, served hot with custard (best bought at the source and not to be confused with Bakewell tart)
Badambura with just a dusting of spiced sugar
Muccunetti, still hot from the oven
Beijinhos de amêndo — little almond kisses
Makroud el louse — almonds and orange — delicious!
I could go on, but we’d be here all day. Any of these with a cup of tea and something soothing on the gramophone make for an excellent way to pass an afternoon.
#almonds are a bit of a weakness of mine#not that you’d notice#it’s very subtle#Crowley has never bribed me with marzipan#i forgot almond croissants!#Crowley may possibly have bribed me with almond croissants#once or twice#several times in fact#definitely fewer than ten times
