The torte was wonderful - sweet but not sickly, chewy but not too tough, soft but not ridiculously so. The only problems with it were not enough crab apple jelly - though the tartness and the flavour of the jelly was perfect to offset the very sweet almond paste - and the flan case was overcooked at the edge, so became somewhat dry and crunchy. But definitely a success!
