french desserts #2

this is the teacher, a French lady, whose Swedish husband is here for his PhD

busy in action in the kitchen (for this class, i was the only non-Japanese in a class of 6 students)

this is a picture from the previous French crepe class

learnt how to make another common French dessert, profiteroles.

it is usually eaten with ice cream in the middle (it looks like a cream puff pastry, but it is much lighter and fluffier) and hot chocolate sauce drizzled on top, with fresh fruits on the side!

the dough pastry used for this dessert can also be used to make French éclairs and other French desserts - i was hoping to try making éclairs when we go back to Singapore (that is, after I get my own oven)
