Description

Craquelin is a type of pastry topping used to add a crunchy, sweet texture to choux pastry items like cream puffs and éclairs. It is made from a simple dough that is rolled out, cut into discs, and placed on top of the choux pastry before baking. As the choux pastry puffs up in the oven, the craquelin forms a crackly, crispy crust on the surface, enhancing both the texture and visual appeal of the final product.
