Class details
I worked at the Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong as a Pastry Chef at the two star Michelin restaurant Caprice. During my time in Hong Kong, I was twice elected Best Pastry Chef for Hong Kong and Macau by Tatler Magazine. And in 2018, I was chosen as the youngest ever Asia's Best Pastry Chef according to The World's 50 Best Restaurants.
Incredible is the only word that comes to my mind! This dessert is my favorite. The inner caramel cream was silky smooth. The addition of the nuts was amazing for texture and an additional burst of flavor. The vanilla chantilly cream on top was also spectacular. Finally, the craquelin gave choux paste amazing crunches, which was the perfect vehicle to hold these ingredients and let them shine while also tasting incredible. Last touch rich pecan praline had a shiny appearance and runny texture. They are not only delicious, but works of art–they look as beautiful as they taste.
Just another outstanding recipe! The flavors and different textures are so good. I have to control myself not eating the smooth caramel cream before using it as a filling. We love praline with a crunch, I did proceed until it still had little pieces of nuts and caramel.
Eating these choux is just a really fantastic experience.
Here the puff pastry, they are an absolute délice.
I really like the pecan caramelized with this long technique that gives an astonishing result.
Pecans are not my favourite nuts, but I need to say that this way is really brought to another level of taste.
Delicious dessert for family 😋. My family loved the taste. The caramel custard, vanilla cream and the flavoured pecan was delicious. The choux was crunchy and just the right texture. I learnt something new, like flavouring pecans and they taste so good. I never could imagine we could flavour nuts inside and out. Loved the taste.
