Mille-feuilles (Napoleons)

This a a French patisserie classic made  up of layers of  buttery puff pastry and crème patissière.

I made the puff pastry from scratch and although tedious, it yielded great results.It tasted great.

Puff pastry was first rolled out and cut into equal length rectangles and baked:



Assembly#1 Raspberry mille feuille
3 layers of puff pastries with 2 layers of crème patissière with fresh raspberries.


Assembly#2 Classic mille feuille
3 layers of puff pastries with 2 layers of crème patissière and topped with glacé icing.
