Pailleté feuilletine

Pailleté feuilletine is a type of confectionery ingredient made from thin, crispy, caramelized crepes. These delicate flakes are often used in pastry and chocolate-making to add a crunchy texture to various desserts and confections. It has a light, crispy, and flaky texture that remains crunchy even when mixed into creams, ganaches, or chocolates.


The flavor is typically sweet with a hint of caramel, which complements a wide range of desserts. Pailleté feuilletine is commonly used in mousse cakes, pralines, truffles, and other pastries to add a satisfying crunch. It can be mixed into batters, sprinkled on top of desserts, or incorporated into layers of cakes.


To maintain its crispiness, pailleté feuilletine should be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. This ingredient is popular among professional pastry chefs for its ability to enhance both the texture and taste of desserts.
