For some reason I didn’t receive the BCM email with the April recipes. Maybe some others had the same problem. I just looked on this page.
I have never gotten an email. :( I always just come look. Is there a place to sign up for an email? Katrina, Baking and Boys!
If there is, I don’t know about it, and I set up the pages! ;-)
I did receive the email for the recipes and the P&Q.
Well. I found orange marmalade, lime marmalade, and marmalade made with a blend of orange, grapefruit, and lemon. No lemon marmalade. I’ll be using lemon curd instead, unless I change my mind and go back for the blend – sounds kinda good.
OK. Could not stop thinking about the marmalade blend – went back and bought a jar to use. :)
I used orange marmalade, since I already had a jar open. No complaints :-)
Any thoughts on how to make these booze free? I am making them for a younger crowd (as in 5 years old and under) so I am guessing the parents would not appreciate the booze. It is a shame since I have a batch of limoncello resting in my cupboard right now that I made with some lemons from a friends lemon tree.
I used lemon juice in place of all lemoncello. They were a huge hit. Probably a little late letting you know that.
Good future reference!
Meaghan – I think you could substitute the limoncello in the recipe with a combination of lemon juice and water. (Just be careful on how much lemon juice you put in there)
How about using lemonade? I like the Simply Lemonade® brand. :)
I substituted the Limincello for lemon juice. I used a 1:1 ratio. I also added 1 T of sugar for good measure… ;)
I actually bought the stuff. Pending any disasters- I may get this one done!
I’m so excited to make these! I even made my own limoncello! And I’m doing what someone else mentioned, and using lemon curd. Can’t wait to see what everyone else does!
That’s really cool you made your own! Was it hard to do? I’ve always wanted to try making some of my own.
I had a difficult time finding the ground cardamom for this recipe initially – the only store which carried it was in a huge container which was way more than I needed for the recipe – also very expensive. I found that my local Whole Foods has bulk spices like this in stock where you can measure out as much as you need into a little plastic bag – great option when you need just a little bit and don’t want the spices to lose their flavor if you don’t use them often.
