Remove the base from the oven and pour the the Fairy Filling right over the warm base. Right back to the oven, bake at 350 for another 25 to 30 minutes or until the top is a light golden colour. Let cool about an hour.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the powdered sugar (1 cup) and enough lemon juice to lightly Fairy Frost the Melts.
