Have you tried our Champagne Mille Crêpes? We briefly mentioned this cake (which happens to be our newest creation) in the last post...but this cake deserves a standalone post! 

We launched Champagne Mille Crêpes right before the 2019 holiday season and were thrilled to see many clients celebrate the holidays and the new year with this cake. It's a celebratory gem, but also a truly delicious one. The cake has been so well received that we are keeping it available in boutiques till the end of the month. 

What makes this cake special? Many things! We started with our classic cake, the Signature Mille Crêpes, and brainstormed different ways we could elevate and celebrate this cake. Champagne was the natural answer. But champagne alone wasn't enough. We needed something to balance the alcohol...something sweet, something gentle. And so came a very classic pairing: strawberries! We incorporated the strawberries (just a kiss) into the whipped pastry cream. The cream is then hand brushed between every single crêpe layer. 

Then on top, we made champagne gelée! This gelée is so good we could devour it by the bowl. But alas, it is quite labor intensive and costly. So we savor it on top of the cake. The gelée is loose and lush, pretty much perfect. We were very generous with the champagne...in fact, so generous that you'll have to show a 21+ ID card before purchasing in-boutiques. 

We'll see you for a slice soon :)
