Saint-Honoré
A layered pastry decorated with cream and caramel-coated choux puffs.
Say it: san oh-noh-RAY (approximate English pronunciation)
Saint-Honoré combines a pastry base, small choux puffs and generous cream. Caramel on the puffs adds a crisp edge to the softer filling. Shapes, cream flavors and decoration vary between pastry shops, but the contrast of pastry, cream and caramel is central to the dessert. It may be sold by the slice or as an individual pastry.
