These are black mission figs and are self pollinating. We also have the fruits trees netted because other garden animals enjoy our fruits as much as we do. 😀

Listed below; cheated on the pastry but no regrets.

Pretty much described everything in the title:

• Dufour Frozen Pastry; very buttery
• walnut honey cream cheese base
• sliced figs
• generously applied fig jam over the figs

Baked as per pastry instructions. Simple and delicious.

Apple. iUP and direct purchase for T-Mobile network.

I was able to get on order in via mobile app and a couple more via web. It took 30min of refreshing; longer than the usual 5min.

Good luck

Have you considered EPax? They sometimes offer refurbs at price points that may fit your budget.

Not sure if all their components are US sourced, but they are US based and offer real customer support.

Molten lava bao are made with a runny egg custard-like center; it's sweet and slightly salty. The black color I think comes from charcoal powder. I always like to end my dim sum meals with this if its available.
