Video Shows How To Make Puff Shells

Do Your Puff Shells Look Like This? 

Brown and crispy on the outside...

...and soft inside with lots of space to fill it with delicious pastry cream.

When baking the puff shells, it is important to NEVER open the oven. That would make the puff shells collapse and leave no hole inside to fill in the cream. Another trick is to bake them with a higher temperature in the beginning and decrease the temperature as soon as the puff shells turn brown.

The details of the puff shell recipe with all information about how to bake, etc. are included in the free e-book "The Perfect Cream Puff" that you can download at master-pastry.com

Making the pastry cream is a lot easier than making puff shells. However, my tip is to not use any "quick methods" to do this. Don't use custard powder... always work with the best ingredients, only!
  • egg yolk
  • milk
  • butter
  • suggar
  • flour
  • vanilla
