One of the most iconic French pastries, the Eclair,
has captivated dessert lovers worldwide. But what’s the story behind the éclair, and how did it become so popular?
The Story of the Éclair
The éclair originated in 19th-century France, and it’s said that the famous pastry chef Antonin Carême was the creator of this unique treat. The word “éclair” means “lightning” in French, named for how quickly it’s eaten due to its irresistible taste! It’s made from a delicate choux pastry that’s crispy on the outside, hollow on the inside, and filled with a rich, creamy filling, topped with a glossy glaze.
