I am feeling nostalgic. Help needed.

I was thinking about some lovely pastry in a cake with a pineapple top and or possibly jam. We had those when I was home.

I remember getting them at home when I was young they were lovely have no idea when I last had one.
Has anyone seen them in recent years.

Oooh you are awful Marydoll.

I’ve forgotten which comedian said that but I know he did some cross-dressing for the show. ?

I used to make them in a bakery many years ago in Cornwall. Baked pastry cases, a layer if pineapple jam, a swirl of synthetic cream, then runny pineapple flavoured yellow icing, fondant we called it and I think a cherry on top. I don’t remember actually eating one but they must have been very sweet and sickly!

Googled it.

Dick Emery in the blond wig. I bet you the PC Brigade would have complained big time if he appeared now. He was so funny.
