At La Renaissance, we begin by baking our own choux, and then filling each one by hand with pastry cream. The cream puffs are then artfully arranged as an impressive, towering confection, held together by caramel and decorated with sugared almonds, custom messages, festive ribbons–whatever you might wish for!
