Believe it or not, these crumb bars are delicious. It's fact, plain and simple. A friend in work tasted some and said it tasted like a fairy had farted in her mouth. Obviously I had to tell you this-have you ever heard someone say that before?! What a fantastic way to describe something....this girl's got a stunning way with descriptive imagery.
I'm taking it as a compliment. Apparently fairy farts taste like rhubarb and strawberry crumb bars. Who knew?
Baked goods like these crumb bars do all the right things for me-they're everything I want. They marry two flavours together beautifully: rhubarb and strawberry. One's a little sweet and one's a little tart and together they make sense.
These bars also scream SPRING with rhubarb and strawberries coming into season.
I always love anything that is layered. You can see this from these Salted Caramel Squares, this Toffee Apple Cake and this Apricot and Amaretto Trifle.
