mmm that stew Apple is perfect, it's not too soft it's not too crunchy and
they've just put the right amount of icing on top so it's not too sweet and
this butter pastry that's so rich and buttery. it's so nice mmm the pastry
alone is awesome, and they're reasonably generous with the stewed apples there's
chunks of stewed apple in there it's got that real apple texture when you bite
