We learned
how to make crepes, a crepe cake, éclairs, puff pastry and cheese puffs today.
If that is not a way to someone’s heart, I have no idea how to do it then. Everything
was much less difficult that I had always assumed. I had always elevated éclairs
in my mind to something that was unattainable but I was way off the mark. They don’t
take any terribly hard to find equipment, they are easy to cook and are
amazingly delicious!
I love
knowing that I can take these recipes and make them my own now. We made chocolate
pastry cream and topped the éclairs with chocolate but I think in the future I
would just stick to vanilla bean for my éclairs. It is also nice to know that I
could always flavor the puff pastry and make something amazing and delicious
all on my own. The same goes for the crepe cake. I could change the applesauce
and make a plum, pear or chestnut filling, whatever I would like could be
amazing.
