These treats were used as bribery for good behaviour for Jenny Lam when she was a small and apparently naughty little girl! I think that is so cute. From an early age, Jenny was clearly a foodie. She knew how to get what she wanted!
These are very easy to make especially if you purchase the puff pastry. The day we shot the video was so humid and the pastry was melting before our eyes, but they still turned out really well. They are great as a snack, but seriously, add some stunning salad and you have a great dinner as well.
Thanks Jen!
