This recipe was a disaster! The French cream curdled and the sugared grapes were rock hard. I'm not sure what went wrong.

The sugared grapes were a bit too crunchy for my liking, but the French cream was divine! Overall, a good recipe.

This was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved it! I think I'll try using less sugar next time.
