Taste test notes
u0026#149; Appearance not as attractive because it's quite dark with flat shape but it's better on eating.u003cbru003e u0026#149; Looks like a hockey puck, round, brown, lots of fruit. Looks very dark when toasted. Minimal aroma. Gritty texture but fluffy and still a bit gritty when toasted.u003cbru003e u0026#149; Not unpleasant flavour when toasted, slathered in butter would be nice.u003cbru003e u0026#149; Good appearance and great texture for a gluten free bun.u003cbru003e
