Well… Pumpkin Shadows had other plans.
The loaf came out looking great, the colors were right, the cuts looked good—and then I realized the black line between the layers was just a little too thick.
Once the bars were cut, they started separating right along that line.
So this batch won’t make it into the Halloween collection.
Not ideal, but that’s part of making things by hand. Sometimes a batch turns out exactly how you pictured it, and sometimes it gives you a very clear lesson.
I know what I need to change, so Pumpkin Shadows is getting another round.
And judging by the last bar in the video… it may have a few opinions about that.
