I would have liked the apricot cheese filling to be a bit creamier.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I omitted the walnuts from the orange salad. It was still delicious.

I couldn't find any oranges, so I used grapefruit instead. It worked out great! The salad was still delicious.

The apricot cheese filling was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.
