A delicious bouquet of gorgeous red apple roses with rich creamy custard in a crisp pecan pastry. It’s beautiful enough to take center stage on a dessert buffet…but why wait for a big occasion when you could share it over afternoon tea with old friends?
When apples are heated, the flesh softens and the red skins turns a dull reddish brown. In this recipe, you will learn my secret to softening apples as if they are cooked without losing the bright red color of the skin.

Made a stunning and fresh tasting dessert. I discovered the hard way that not all apple varieties will soften with this method- of the 3 types I tried only the red ones worked, per the recipe. If, like me, you were hoping to make a sunset gradient, reconsider.
Thanks for sharing the tip about apple varieties - sunset effect sounds like it would have been very cool though…
