Description
Indulge in the delightful world of desserts with this stunning Layered Choux Pastry Tower that is perfect for special occasions.
Ingredients
Scale
- 20–25 airy choux puffs (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup of smooth vanilla custard (ready-made or homemade)
- ¼ cup of luscious caramel sauce
- ½ cup of fresh, vibrant berries (strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries)
- A sprinkling of powdered sugar for decoration
- Optional: Fresh mint leaves for a pop of color
Instructions
- Begin by filling your choux puffs with the luscious vanilla custard using a piping bag fitted with a small round tip. Fill each puff quite fully for delightful creaminess.
- Place a circular layer of filled choux puffs on the serving platter to create a solid base. Stack an additional circular layer of choux puffs to create a pyramid-like effect, adding dots of caramel sauce between for stability.
- Drizzle caramel sauce over the top, scatter fresh berries around, and dust lightly with powdered sugar. Add mint leaves for a pop of color.
Notes
Plan to assemble the tower just before serving to maintain the integrity of the choux puffs and prevent sogginess.
