    Paris-Breast Cake Art No.: 70013 Weight: 19.4oz QTY in Box: 6

    The Paris–Brest is a classic French pastry, featuring a crisp, almond-studded baked ring of pâte à choux that’s split in half horizontally, liberally filled with praline crème mousseline—a heady mixture of vanilla pastry cream, nutty praline paste, and whipped butter—and finished with a dusting of powdered sugar.
    This bakery staple was created in 1910 by pastry chef Louis Durand, as an homage to the long-distance Paris-Brest-Paris bicycle race (1,200km/750mi) which was initiated in 1891. The pastry’s circular shape is meant to evoke that of a bicycle wheel.
