A note from Bianca:
I first served these at a garden luncheon inspired by one of my favorite 1950s cookbooks. I remember nervously piping them with a star tip, hoping they’d impress. They were a hit — especially with a chilled rosé and gingham napkins. Vintage, effortless, and a little bit fabulous.
