Chef Hervé Guillard demonstrates the technique of making croissants, pain au chocolat and assorted “Danish” pastires at LCB. We made envelope-style patisseries, pinwheels, bear claws, snails and frame-style patisseries. The final step is brushing the pastries (not including the croissants and pain au chocolat) with a glaze called “nappage.” This nappage gives the pastries a beautiful sheen.
Isabelle Fougoux is in awe of the DOUBLE pain au chocolat she chose!
Tasha makes croissants, pain au chocolat, Danish, brie en croute under Chef Guillard’s direction.
Yum!!
I love, love, love Pain au Chocolat. One of my favorite treats. These photos are making me very hungry!
I’ll take two for here, and two to go, please!!
It was a great unexpected moment to share Tasha ‘ s LCB pain au chocolat (favorite treat) with daughter Isabelle after school. I was hoping it was too big for her … But she never asked for me to finish it… 😦
Time to visit Tasha again…
No need to look for a good french pastry in LA… These are for sure the best viennoiseries in Southern California !!!! Can’t wait to be back to enjoy a delicious french style brunch with Tasha !! 🙂
Quand est-ce que tu arrives a Los Angeles, Vero?
I hope that you arrive very soon.
