Blueberry Braids

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

Here is MY attempt at Floyd's rendition of blueberry braided bread. :) I stuffed one with the bluberry recipe (that's the one that's slightly broke open) and the other with a golden raspberry/orange zest/orange juice/Bacardi Rum filling.

The raspberry one was very good. But, no better than the blueberry one.

I've been coming up with alternative fillings (in my head) all day. I think my next attempt is going to be layering almonds and dried cranberries (rehydrated with a bit of Amarreto). I'm thinking that an almond paste might work best... especially with the texture of the cream cheese.
