Feuilletine Flakes 500g

Feuilletine Flakes - 500g Bag

Feuilletine are delicate, crispy flakes made from thin, sweetened crêpe dentelle (caramelized crêpes). They add a delightful, crunchy texture and a subtle, buttery, and caramel-like flavor to a wide range of desserts. This ingredient is a professional secret for introducing a "textural contrast" to creamy and smooth preparations.

Key Features:

• Flavor: Subtle, buttery, with a hint of caramel.
• Texture: Light, crispy, and incredibly crunchy.
• Form: 500g resealable bag to maintain freshness.
• Allergens: Gluten, Milk, Soy. May contain eggs.

Applications

• Texture in Chocolate: Mixed into melted chocolate or cocoa butter to create a crunchy base for desserts ("croustillant").
• Cake Layers: Added between layers of mousse cakes, entremets, and cheesecakes for a crispy element.
• Toppings & Garnishes: Sprinkled on top of ice cream, mousses, and frosted cupcakes for crunch.
• Truffle & Bonbon Centers: Incorporated into ganache to provide a surprising crunchy center.
• Cookie & Bar Mix-ins: Folded into cookie dough or mixed into homemade snack bars.
• Crusts: Combined with melted butter or chocolate to create a quick, no-bake crust for tarts and pies.

Chef's Tip: To maintain their crunch, always coat feuilletine flakes in fat (like chocolate, praline, or butter) before incorporating them into wet mixtures. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place to prevent them from becoming soft.
