Ruby Raspberry Pistachio Paris-Brest

  • Good for freezing
Classic pastries will always be among my favorites.  The Ruby Raspberry Pistachio Paris-Brest is a classic pastry that combines different techniques, textures, and flavors to celebrate and sweeten our lives. The Cacao Barry Plein Arôme cacao powder gives a strong chocolate flavor to the dough. The Callebaut Ruby RB2 gives a unique flavor to the cream as well as a smooth texture. The Cacao Barry Pistachio praline spread gives the dessert a flavor and texture that contrasts with the smooth textures and fresh flavors of the cream.
