Cake–Gato
Everyone knows that France is a trendsetter. And that France is famous for its bread culture and the vast and invaluable experience in breadmaking. Holidays and festivals devoted to the grain business, are held regularly on a large scale and are extremely popular. Maybe such a beautiful baking is because of all the French bakers and pastry chefs know that they have a patron Saint and patron Saint honoré (Saint-honoré; or Honoratus, Bishop of Amiens in the sixth century). Once in France, in 1846, the famous pastry chef Chiboust created in his Paris shop, cake-Gato "Saint-honoré". With a cream "Chiboust" and profiteroles choux pastry. It has been named the cake–Gato in honor of the patron Saint honoré and the streets of Paris, which was the shop of Monsieur Chiboust. I want to offer white color in my trio of flowers in France. Cake–Gato "Saint-honoré". This non-traditional chocolate version.
