Le Cannelé.
When I first arrived in Paris, I imagined this little golden treat to taste like a really good sour cream glazed doughnut. I was wrong in a good way. I recently just tried one and it was a delightful light tasting treat that would go wonderfully with afternoon tea.
A bite into a cannelé is almost gummy and not cake-like at all. After doing a little research, a cannelé is made with custard that is baked in cylinder shaped molds. Baking the custard in these molds, gives le cannelé that delicious looking golden appearence.
Quite yummy.
