Lore
Toby’s apple lattice meringue pies/tarts make the challenge’s technical tension visible: apple pie cues, a lattice-like finish, and meringue all have to coexist in a small format. The handshake is verified in the Meringue Week record, but the research pass found no exact public recipe to carry into a home kitchen.
Recipe source pending
No exact or near-exact public recipe for Toby’s handshake bake was located in the verified research pass. This entry contains attribution and lore only, with no invented ingredients or method.
