Cat Bus Lychee Rose Mixed Berry Choux Pastries

 I made use of a new painting technique to create patterns on choux pastries covered with craquelin to make these Cat Bus creampuffs and Eclairs!

Of course the Totoro vegan marshmallows have to join in the scene!

Here's a look at the cross section showing the lychee rose diplomat cream with raspberry strawberry jam!

You can't see it clearly but there are juicy bits of lychee pieces inserted to give it a little more juicy bite.

It's time consuming to put together the full body version so I only made a couple of those but many more heads (some not shown in picture)

Good technique is necessary for a sturdy, crisp pastry and super hollow interior

I feel decorative choux pastry is not as popular as macarons or marshmallows although the possibilities are endless and it tastes the best in my opinion because it contains a lot less sugar. I hope to be able to showcase more choux pastry creations this year!

Here's the reel showing the making and filling of the full body cat bus choux pastry, and the ingredient list:
