I am a massive pastries buff and I love eating cake and other types of fancy pastries and cakes that are sweet of course. What inspired this post was eating just now, a slice of black forest cake and a slice of chocolate roulade. It was delicious and obviously, no picture of them means that I devoured them before I got the chance to take a picture.
I'll be going to Paris and Europe in the Summer, so I'm somewhat brushing up and making a list on the pastries I want to devour while over there.
Paris means, obviously, Laduree. Laduree makes the most fabulous macarons and I don't think I'll be able to visit the store when I'm in New York, so Paris is definitely the perfect time.
I've heard that the Salt Caramel flavour is delicious. Definitely on my to try list. C:
On the subject of Macarons, it wouldn't hurt to try out Pierre Herme's macarons either. This one looks delicious too. Although these have more filling than the ones by Laduree.
This is a Mont Blanc, a tart base and chesnut cream spiraled around it like in this one. I have never tried chesnuts before, so this will be interesting to have. I don't know whether or not I would like chesnuts, but I would be willing to give it a try. Although if I don't like it, this dessert will be an interesting sight, no?
This is an apple galette. It does look like an apple pie, but it's still on my to try list even though I'm totally over apple pie. This is like a much thinner, prettier and open sister to the apple pie.
As you can see here. It's open faced and the apples are pretty and caramelized. mmm.
And these are the ever classic madeleines. I never knew what to make of these cookies. Should they be hard, or are they soft, because they're such thick cookies. Are they going to be cake-like inside, or are they just going to crumble? Anyways. I've never tried one of these and I would like to.
I guess that's it for now. I'm quite sure there will be a part 2 to this post whenever I get the inspiration of food again. I should probably get to work now.
