…I choux choux choose you…
This creation had a short but spectacular outing at Zumbo last year. It has to be in homage to the Religieuse at Laduree, but I think this Balmain version looks heaps better.

belle, is the filling made of custard and cream or something more exotic? Custard and cream is a match made in heaven imho...
ReplyDeleteOOOh I adored Laduree's Religeuse de la Rose so I think I should really try this-for research purposes ;)
ReplyDeleteIs it a macaron biscuit and do you know what the filling is? I can't work it out from the picture :S
LM - I can't remember what was in it! No doubt it was yummy, though.
ReplyDeleteLorraine - you should have enough material to write a thesis. It is a big macaron with some sort of custardy filling. The little choux on top is so cute.
B.F THE FILLING WAS A LIGHT SOFT MERINGUE,WITH A MELT IN THE MOUTH MANGOJEL AND A HINT OF PASSION FRUITJUZE.MOST SIMPLY HAS TO BE A SIN UMMMM..
ReplyDeletebf: Thanks sweetie for the description! It was indeed sinful.
