NVM Review
(November/December 2006)By Warren Rojas
These pastries are great at any hour of the day, with lots of fruit fillings and luscious custards to choose from.
A raspberry bomb d’amour is a crumbly cupcake hiding a raspberry payload. The fleur caramel drapes velvety cream and bands of caramel amidst spongy vanilla cake. While a striking strawberry-pistachio creation brings pistachio-encrusted cake enveloping sliced strawberries and whipped cream.
