    I’ve never even made a cream puff… looks fabulous! You need one centered on top covered in gold leaf like the star topper of a tree 😀

    I haven’t attempted a croquembouche since culinary school, where I nearly cried from frustration.

    Hat’s off to you for such a good one on your first try!

    I watched master chef and saw how they made this cake. It’s quite hard for newer

    The fact that it is standing is truly an accomplishment in itself! That it looks pretty good for a first try mean it’s a triumph!!

    That looks amazing, I think you did a great work! Thanks for sharing. 🫶

    Might finally give this a try this holiday season.
