Sounds as it would work I have been using creme fraise for quite a few things that otherwise I would use double (heavy) cream.

On the subject of pancakes real British ones are very thin not as thin as the French crepes but more that size and do not have any raising ingredients in them and us Brits always like to have a go at tossing them.

Christmas cakes out of the oven and now on rack cooling before I prick them and sprinkle brandy over then wrap in baking parchment and foil and put away for several months. I will feed them with brandy every 2 or 3 weeks though.

Those are beautiful and I’m sure they are even more so when it comes time to present them!

I make rum cakes for friends every Christmas. They are just bliss! :)
