What the original account establishes
These notes distinguish the recorded result from quantities or settings the contributor did not specify. Follow each source link to the original passage.
- Ingredients: dessert pastry, icing sugar, hundreds and thousands and strawberry jam, around £3.50 from Sainsbury’s; no quantities are given. Two identical squares of pastry were rolled out on a surface covered with icing sugar, to stop sticking and add sweetness. Strawberry jam was spread over one and the other placed on top, and it was baked at 200 degrees Celsius for 15 mins in a fan-assisted oven. Once cool, very thick icing was applied and hundreds and thousands sprinkled on top, and the whole was left to solidify. Source 1 · Source 2 · Source 3 · Source 4

1.The ingredients were straight forward as is shown in the picture, dessert
pastry, icing sugar, hundreds and thousands and strawberry jam, all coming
to a grand total of around £3.50 thanks to the low pricing of sainsburys!
2.I rolled two identical squares of pastry using a surface covered in icing
sugar to prevent sticking and provide that sweetness only pop tarts give.
3.Strawberry jam was then spread over the top of one pastry slabs and then
the other slab was placed ontop and then baked in the oven at 200 degrees
celius for 15 mins in a fan assisted oven.
4. After cooling, very thick icing sugar was applied and then hundreds and
thousands sprinkled ontop and the whole thing lefts to solidfy.
5. The end result was a very Pop Tart looking supersized breakfast dessert!
now, maybe someone should pimp a toaster so I have one big enough to toast
it in!
