Croissant aux Amandes
The Croissant aux Amandes is a French specialty with fine almond cream, soaked croissant, and roasted almond decoration. Its aromatic composition, moist texture, and crispy surface create a pastry that looks classic while meeting modern demands. Mmm…
You will learn how to make an aromatic rum punch, pipe the almond cream neatly, and assemble and bake the pastry in several steps. Expert David Schmid will guide you through the process, from piping to finishing. Handy tip: Croissants from the day before can also be used for this recipe.
The combination of cream, syrup, and baking time is finely balanced. The result is a pastry with character, a pleasant sweetness, and a good structure – impressive in both taste and texture.
Almond croissant
A moist almond filling, a hint of rum, and toasted almonds make this pastry a classic with French flair.
