Colomba di Pasqua
I think my Easter Doves came out a bit...... nazi germany eagle :-/
What do you think;
Would putting a green twig in their beak bring it back to the coming festivities?
Thanks txfarmer for the insightful pics!
recipe and shaping pics by txfarmer can be found here
I haven't been on TFL for some time, but HAVE been baking. Take a look at my "baking gallery"

suspended from the Reichtagsbuilding, grin grin.....
With white frosting and a fresh twig of rosemary it will be a beautiful
peace dove !
I guess it's the pointy bits that make it look a bit nazi... I didn't think of frosting them. Good idea, I'm going to do that :-), even though I will have to frost over the sugarcoating i gave it. I guess we will just have to CLUB the kids to bed on easter night, hihi

children getting hyper on eating sugar is a myth. At least this is what I read a couple of months ago. Consider a white frosting of garlic herb cheese :)
They are beautiful looking dove breads! As if they can fly.. How was the taste and crumb?
I saw your art gallery, They look excellent, too.
Best wishes,
Akiko
thank u Akiko!
I will have to wait until Easter before I can taste them. Last year I was up at 5.30 AM taking care of Easter breakfast, and this year we're going to do it a little different :-), so the doves have gone straight to the freezer!
That took some work!
Nicely done,
Larry
thanks larry; actually, I was surprised how easy the shaping is on this bird
have a nice Easter!
