Raspberry Peach Torte

There is nothing I love more than being able to head to our local farmers market every Saturday morning to purchase fresh produce. Enjoying the many aromas (minus the body odor, but it’s expected), the friendliness of all the vendors handing out samples and the farm fresh produce that is grown right here. I had to take advantage and pick up some amazing raspberries and peaches before the season is over.

I recently had a family reunion and needed to take something that would blow everyone away. My mom’s side of the family is huge and has quite the group of master chefs. I don’t think I have ever been to a reunion where we didn’t have anything left over. It’s always a shmorgasburg of different treats to taste and I wanted to be one of the best.
