Jeffrey Cagnes French Pastries - Authentic Gourmet Desserts for Special Occasions & Gifts

For many years the lead pastry chef at , the oldest pastry shop in Paris, Jeffrey Cagnes has recently opened several shops bearing his own name. This book presents creations he has developed on his own: some are versions of enduring classics while others playfully embrace ingredients and flavors from beyond France.

Among the distinctive pastries we spotted are:

• Pistachio pull-apart babka
• Sesame croissant
• Churros with lime-kiwi jam
• Buckwheat madeleine
• Tiramichoux–in which choux buns replace traditional lady fingers

Zippy and imaginative.
