Brush one side of each strip with water and carefully wind round the outside of 12 greased cream horn tins, overlapping slightly so that there are no gaps.

Put into the oven preheated to very hot (230°C/450°F or Gas Mark 8) and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown.

When cold, remove the tins from the pastry.
Put a tablespoonful of jam into the bottom of the horns.
Beat the filling ingredients together until thick, then spoon into the horns.
