A cream puff, also known as choux à la crème, is a classic French pastry made from light choux dough (pâte à choux) baked into a hollow, airy shell. Its crisp outer layer contrasts delightfully with the rich, creamy filling inside, traditionally vanilla pastry cream (crème pâtissière) or whipped cream.
These delicate treats are often dusted with powdered sugar, drizzled with chocolate, or glazed with caramel for extra indulgence. Cream puffs are a staple in patisseries worldwide and are popular for afternoon tea, dessert platters, or celebratory events like weddings.
