Encouraging the enjoyment of pastries at nearly every opportunity, Gateaux presents recipes for different times of the day, from breakfast pains au chocolat to the indulgent Mont-blanc in the evening. Step-by-step line drawing sequences accompany many recipes to provide clear guidance for assembly. Originating from a Parisian pastry shop, the European outpost of an award-winning Japanese pastry chef, Gateaux features timeless favourites like vanilla flan and chocolate (c)clairs and revisits classics inspired by the land of the rising sun, such as Paris-Brest with black sesame and Japanese fraisier.
