Canelés de Bordeaux (x6)

The tale of Canelés de Bordeaux harks back to the 18th century in the Bordeaux region. These delectable pastries owe their creation to the skilled hands of French nuns, who crafted them as a culinary delight. Originally, Canelés were made as a means to repurpose leftover egg yolks discarded during the winemaking process. Over time, their charm and exquisite taste caught the attention of Bordeaux’s gourmands, and they soon became a cherished tradition crafted by artisanal bakers.

Canelés de Bordeaux are a delectable marriage of textures and flavours. Their exteriors are adorned with a caramelized crust that provides a delightful crunch, while the interiors are tender and custardy. The taste is a harmonious blend of vanilla and a hint of rum, resulting in a sweet, aromatic treat that’s not overly sugary.

Pair these exquisite pastries with a glass of Sauternes, a renowned sweet wine from Bordeaux, for a classic and indulgent combination. Alternatively, enjoy them with a cup of rich, dark coffee or as a sweet ending to a gourmet meal.

To keep Canelés de Bordeaux at their best, store them in an airtight container or wrap them tightly to maintain their freshness. Keep them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
