I can't imagine devoting myself to any one particular pastry- there are too many gorgeous things to try- but am looking forward to some. The Rouge Framboise from Eclair de Genie being a particular object of desire. How gorgeous is that? I hope it tasted as good as it looks. Once again I'm amazed by your eye- I love your eclair/arch connections. Were they happy for you taking photos? And are they cupcakes under the counter where the vendeuse is bagging your purchases?Louisehttp://astrongbeliefinwicker.blogspot.com.aunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-12043755555734400782013-04-30T03:14:08.393-04:002013-04-30T03:14:08.393-04:00How can it be that I live here in Germany, a place...How can it be that I live here in Germany, a place with, well, let's just say, disappointing, pastry, and yet be so close to the source of such sublime pleasure!

I want to make 2 comments 1) for all the amazing fillings, I still prefer an Australian version which used to be made by many country ladies when I ws a child. The freshly baked éclair was iced with chocolate icing and filled with whipped, sweetened rich farm cream. Havn't had a home made one in decades!! 2) I think it's 'fait accompli' where accompli is the past participle of 'accomplir' or 'to accomplish, achieve'. Think that's correct. from Gwendoline in AustraliaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-25974352680425710492013-04-29T16:19:26.858-04:002013-04-29T16:19:26.858-04:00I come here everyday and I am never disappointed. ...I come here everyday and I am never disappointed.
