Sakura Cream Puff - 桜チュー

Sakura Choux Creme


From Cosy Corner. I like my cream fillings heavy and smooth, but this one was airy like a mousse. It had a very subtle, sweet candy cherry flavor that somehow managed to have a faint trace of that 'cherry cough syrup' taste I hate so much. (Two months of Bronchitis in grade four, Cherry Broncadon three times daily. I still feel like gagging when I eat cherry Lifesavers).

It wasn't quite the taste of spring that I was looking for, but the new bamboo shoots with rice I had for dinner more than made up for it. Photo and recipe tomorrow.
