I cooked the Fruta de mazapan up the day before. They kept well; they lost
their crispness quickly, but didn't go greasy. The dough was moist and they
were fried in really hot oil; perhaps the water in the dough burst into
steam and kept the oil from saturating the crust. All I know is, they were
good.
I just wish I could have tasted the other entries; I've got some dietary
restrictions, and I couldn't eat anything! WAAAH!
Congrats on your favor. It is more than well-deserved.
Vicente
