S6 E23 : Elegant and Impressive Crepe Cake

Send a text

Are you looking for a different layer cake to wow your guests? A Crepe Cake might be the perfect thing! This week on Three Kitchens, Heather tries this recipe and has all the tips and tricks for you to make it too.

A crepe cake, or mille crêpe ("thousand crepes"), is an elegant, no-bake French-inspired dessert featuring 15–30 thin, stacked crepes layered with pastry cream or whipped cream. It is made by cooking paper-thin crepes on a skillet, assembling them with filling, and chilling to achieve a delicate, sliceable texture.

Heather made 22 crepes and filled her cake with two flavours of whipped cream -- one was mixed with lemon curd and the other was with mascarpone cheese and vanilla. The crepes are the thing that take a little time, but once you get going it's not too labour intensive. Then assembling the cake is easy. The most difficult part is waiting for it to set before you slice into it.

Dust your final cake with a little icing sugar and you have a beautiful, unique dessert to impress your guests.
