    So easy and so pretty. Will make again and again. It's great as a gluten-free option as well.

    I love baking something new for each family holiday. Everyone loved this one and it was so beautiful with all of the fresh fruit slices. I may try to lighten it up a little for during the year. But if that doesn't work, no one will ever know it has no it was a Passover recipe.
