Table top Croquembouche

The croquembouche is a wow-worthy tower of profiteroles glazed in crunchy caramel that both looks and tastes incredible. Delicate choux pastry is filled with sweet Italian crème chantilly, while the caramel glaze holds everything in place, allowing the tower to reach crazy heights. Sometimes I need to climb up my small purple stepladder to finish the top! (Fun fact: the world’s tallest croquembouche was a whopping 4.1m!)

It’s the caramel glaze that gives the croquembouche its name, which translates to “crunch in the mouth.”

The croquembouche is French and features more commonly in celebrations in France than Italy, and the top is traditionally cut with a sword. You can build them with a mould to create a uniform appearance, or without for a more “free” look – we prefer the latter and all our profiterole towers are constructed entirely by hand.

Sword or no sword, it’s a great choice if you want to impress friends, colleagues, or relatives. For every croquembouche, we make extra profiteroles so we can “test” and ensure they meet our standard.

Croquembouche

A classic centrepiece for major celebrations in France, our Croquembouche towers are built from crisp caramel glazed choux filled with crème pâtissière and cream. We adore this tradition, which is why we also offer smaller sizes, ideal for informal celebrations, cosy get-togethers, and sweet occasions of any scale
