WIN!

Apricots (250g), which are
slightly different to what you
may expect from a dried apricot!
Produced just as nat ure
intended, Crazy Jack Apricots
are a rich brown colour rather
than the more recognisable
orange, due to being dried
without the addition of sulphur

dioxide – the chemical

which is used as a

preservative that

changes the apricots

orange. For more

range and baking recipe

ideas, please visit http://www.
