These should be good for mixing with fruit & spice to make a filling for
decorative pastries.  See, for example, Tart de Brymlent in the _Forme of
Cury_, and Rapeye in "Vyaunde Furne3" in _Two Fifteenth-Century
Cookery-Books_ ed. by Thomas Austin.  Also see chastletes in the _Forme of
Cury_ for an example of decorative pastry that can have a fruity filling.
