  3. On the broader end of each triangle place some of the almond mixture and one dessert spoon of Raspberry Conserve. Roll up into croissants and turn the ends inwards. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
  4. Stir together egg yolk and cream then brush the croissants with the mixture. Place straight in the pre-heated oven (220 degrees) on to the middle shelf, for 12-15 minutes. Serve tepid or cool.
