Description: Cannelés (or Cannelés de Bordeaux) are small, delicious French pastries that hail from the Bordeaux region. These treats are known for their beautiful caramelized crust and soft, custardy interior. Made with a mixture of egg yolks, milk, flour, sugar, vanilla, and rum, the batter is poured into special fluted molds and baked at a high temperature to create a unique contrast between the crisp exterior and tender interior. Cannelés are perfect as an elegant dessert or for a special afternoon treat with a cup of tea or coffee.
