Comments on: The Bather’s Kiosk at Balmoral Beach http://www.notquitenigella.com/2008/03/30/the-bathers-kiosk-at-balmoral-beach/ The slightly eccentric eating and cooking adventures of a Sydney girl who loves cakes, cooking, Nigella Lawson and eating. She eats, breathes and dreams food and indeed will never get cable TV as she'd quit working and watch the Food Channel all day long.

Was there anything else good in it's place? Hi Brittany-Ahh bummer :( I think they’re the petit fours that they have for the day. Was there anything else good in it’s place?

Wow, who knew that Bather's was cheaper than other places? Shhh let's not tell them and they won't raise the prices :lol: I've made a frozen chocolate mousse and it was gorgeous but very, very, very rich. I should make it again-it's very easy and makes a sizeable portion. I know what you mean, kids just seem to like brightly coloured thing-something as delicate as a mousse might be wasted on them! Blood Orange jam would be sublime-mmmmm. I had a great one-but the perils of having a 4 day weekend the week before meant that my brain thought that I had another 2 days off coming! Hope yours was good too!? :) Hi Maria-Yep its $1 for 4 of them-mind you they are rather small petit four sized cakes but it’s still a pretty good buy especially for Bather’s Pavillion.

What can you get these days ..4 for ONE dollar?! Great purchase.. I really enjoy blueberries. And they had hazelnut meal too? The chocolate mousse looks almost identical to a local gourmet mousse.. same size and everything.. except our local mousse is like $8 or something! I checked the Weight Watchers points total on that mousse (I'm losing weight and my daily allowance is 23 points).. The mousse was like 18 points for half a tub! I have only ever made mousse once in my life..and I put so much love and care and labour into it.. and it made such a small amount. The crowd I catered for (a housewarming) had a tonne of kids..so the mousse went in the blink of an eye.. I almost mourned its lightening quick passing.. I felt like it was almost wasted on the children..haha!! I once made blood orange jam.. or was it marmalade? I'm glad your sweets pleased!.. But sorry the balls were different to the last time you had them :( Cheers.. hope you had a good weekend? I did a double-take when I read “4 for $1″! ??

Here in the States, we are lucky to get some french fries at the beach!
