2. NO ADVERTISING

This community is for sharing pictures of awesome food, not a platform to advertise.

3. NO MEMES

4. PICTURES SHOULD BE OF FOOD

Preferably good, high quality pictures of good looking grub; for pictures of terrible food, see [email protected]

Brazo de Mercedes is lemon custard wrapped in soft meringue. Not easy to make, and it didn’t come out perfectly, but it was delicious! Incredibly proud of him - he is taking a pastry class at school, and this is the result of his hard work.

That looks amazing! He should be proud.

Thank you! This pastry class gave him some much-needed confidence.

I thought it was a piece of white bread on top of custard and you were making fun of him 😂

Oh my, I haven’t had brazo de mercedes in over a decade (or more even). I’ll have to see if I can buy one anywhere in my area.

That's wonderful! He seems like he found what he likes.

My step son can't even remember how to make a hot pocket.
