This is my 8th online pastry course, and I’d like to introduce to you to one of my favorite desserts, Cream puffs.

Cream puff, or Choux a la crème in French is a popular dessert all over the world. I learned how to make authentic cream puffs in both Japan and France, and made them in the pastry shop I worked at. It was one of the most popular menu items at the pastry shop where I used to work in Japan.

We will be making French choux pastry batter, Crème pâtissière which is usually referred to as pastry cream or custard cream in English and four different delicious cream fillings. Then I will explain how to assemble them.

I’ll also be showing you how to make one of the more trendy versions, choux au craquelin which is crackled cream puff.

This cake is perfect for a party, and would likely be one of the most popular menu items in your shop.

I’m going to show you not only the recipe, but common mistakes and the solutions, and other helpful tips. Unlike when you just watch the average cooking video, you can ask me questions anytime on my Q&A page.

Are you ready to make the perfect cream puff, together to impress your family and friends?

Let’s get started!
