Post 15 : Mille Crepe (multi-layered crepe cake!)
Hello!
In 2010 and 2011 (and counting) , my favorite anime is Yumeiro Pastissiere .
It's a story about a girl and her journey in the sweets arena (yum!).
Amano Ichigo (voiced by Aoi Yuuki!!!!) is a clumsy girl with no particular talent except for her accurate and amazing taste bud ( She could tell the name of the cake /ingredients used just by tasting).
One day , luck fall upon her.
She was scouted by a teacher to study at a sweet-making school (in which was attended by her late grandmother).
Upon there -since she was scouted and all- she was thought to be a brilliant student that excel in the sweet industry.
Thus, she was assigned to work with this talented group which consist of 3 (good-looking/lol) boys called the Sweet Prince.
* Wait where am I going with all of this info? (-.-)*
/Skip some part/
Her first task was to make mille crepe.
As expected she couldn't do it.
It was all burnt here and there.
This made the others quite loss at words.
And one of the "Sweet Prince" scolded her.
so yeah.
umm..
*what is my point again?*
Anyway, that night - being frustrated and all especially the scolding part - she practiced alot of times (till a sweet spirit/something like a fairy / came along /not that any of that is my point).
My point is I have always wanted to try my hands on mille crepe!
I thought it was something like pancake but I've eat crepes alot of time before that and they are much more thinner than pancakes!
And those Mille crepes Ichigo made is just so mouth-watering (just like any other sweets they made in that series).
So, this year , I had decided to make one!
I found a recipe somewhere on the net. It was a rainbow mille crepe recipe and it looks gorgeous but it didn't worked out when I tried it.
(This is because I put the Wet ingredient after the flour which is a no-no because the crepes won't harden and cook.)
Thus I wasted 7 eggs on my first try. ORZ
The custard cream was lovely though.
The second time I made it, I decided to see where I was wrong by looking for simple crepes recipe thus I found my error (as mentioned above).
It was a success except that it tasted rather tasteless *laughs*.
And today me and my sister made it again.
Great it turns out great! (even though I am sure I did it in such a short time / I tossed in the ingredients without caring the details/it was a mess/ if people saw me did what I did / they would scold me and say my crepes won't work)
It 's wonderful.
It's not too sweet.
Eating it cold is the best!
Before assembling! Look at those stacks of crepes.There's around 25, I think. |
All is done! I divided the crepes into 2 cakes.Bad picture quality! hmph |
*v* ready to eat! |
semi-cake! They look like a dress at least my sister said so. |
Twas a lovely treat (^^)0
well then,
thanks for dropping by!

Quotes of The day:
If You have nothing then you can be anything - I forgot who from Houkago no Pleiades
*In case you're wondering what that quotes mean because at first it may seems rude or bad*
This quotes was said when the characters of the series felt like they were useless and have nothing.
Since this anime feature a brand of a car namely Subaru (if I am not mistaken) , this is actually related to car parts .
Car parts took a particular shape that makes them able to do their functions.
In the series , one of the main characters' father had brought home some defective car parts.
"Car parts when they come together they would be able to do amazing functions, it's amazing," he said
The girl , at the time felt useless, cried and said "But that doesn't matter. Even if all of the useless parts come together they won't be able to do anything"
Then her parents explained that humans are different.
Human doesn't have any shape.
People can take any shape .
And then be able to do the things they meant to do.
Thus explaining the "if you have nothing , then you can be anything,"
Good job on your Mille Crepe, Ani! :)
