Petite Fours (French Miniature Pastries)

Petite Fours Sucrés | Petite Fours Salés

Petite Fours Sucrés NEW!

Petite fours are small, exquisite cakes, pastries, cookies and desserts served after a meal or with afternoon tea. They are small enough to be consumed in one or two mouthfuls. And they make a most impressive display on the buffet table. In this workshop, you will learn to make 2 recipes ; Apricot Pistachio Mignons and Citrus Vaucherin. Chef Judy will then demonstrate how to make Exotic Jelly Boats.

After class is over, we will proceed to Cafe Pralet and sink into the comfortable sofas while we enjoy some finger food and drinks, get to know each other better and perhaps even devour our creations !

Apricot Pistachio Mignons
Fragrant ground almonds and pistachio are added into these exquisite bite sized pieces. A refreshing piece of apricot and Vanilla crème which looks like an attractive quail’s egg sits atop the mignons. The contrast in colours of yellow and green is certainly eye-catching!

Citrus Vaucherin
Bite sized delights that are refreshingly tangy and appetizing. Fresh fruits decorate these little pieces of delight that look like little white nests made of low cholesterol egg whites.

Exotic Jelly Boats
Fruit jellies are "transported' on these little boats of crisp, fragrant and light pastries and filled with fragrant streusel. Exquisite looking.
