We made another trip to our new
favourite bakery! Between us we ordered a choc-chip cookie, a macaroon, a choux bun and (of course) one of their amazing chocolate brownies!
The lady who served us was nice enough to slip in an extra choux bun (I think she thought it would be too difficult to half accurately and was worried for our marriage). It goes without saying that everything was DELICIOUS with a nice tup of tea!
ps. more on the wooden blocks later!
What is this 'shoe bun' you speak of?
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if they are even called shoe buns?? they are like toffee eclairs! let us know when your next in the west end we will point you in there direction!
ReplyDeletechoux pastry - Commonly used to make cream puffs, profiteroles and eclairs, choux pastry relies on rising steam to create a hollow centre that can be filled with cream or custard. When making choux, you need to measure the ingredients carefully, and don't open the oven until it's cooked or your pastry may run out of puff!
