Petits Fours

Cherry Pallettes

these are one million tiny cherry cookie-things.



Financiers

these are supposed to look like bars of gold. (i don't think we have that mold at school.) they have hazelnut paste and brown butter (beurre noissette) in them. that is a strip of pineapple on top.


Almond Tuilles

you can bend these while they are still warm.




And every few days we'd put them on trays.

left to right: cherry pallettes, passion fruit curd tarts, almond macaroons with chocolate, almond tuiles, chocolate macaroons, financiers, gebert macaroons


tiny tart shells are a little tricky. petits fours are supposed to be 2 bites. these passion fruit tarts have blueberries on top.



these chocolate macaroons were super hard to pipe. it was kind of like piping water. that is why some of the tops don't match some of the bottoms.

the green macaroons are gebert macaroons. they are green from food coloring, and these just happen to be filled with raspberry jam or passion fruit curd because that is what we had around.


i did not make crooked financiers. we just consolidated all of them at the end of one day and took some for our trays another day. someone else makes crooked financiers.
