Many customers see ‘Feuilleté’ on our menus and ask the question:
What the heck is a Feuilleté?
Well, a Feuilleté is typically a puff pastry case containing some kind of filling – a pasty of sorts.
But at Foodilic, our ‘Feuilleté pastries are made from delicate filo pastry to give the pastry a crispier finish.
A rarity on menus in the UK, our Feuilleté pastries contain a range of sweet or savoury fillings, including:
-
Cottage Cheese and Mascarpone
-
Cottage Cheese, Mascarpone and Sorrel
-
Smoked Chicken, Mushrooms and Herbs
-
Cheddar Cheese and Ham
-
Smoked Salmon, Soft Cheese and Sorrel
-
Crab and Ginger
-
Sweet Pumpkin and Honey
Here is our Pastry Chef at Foodilic Western Road demonstrating how the Feuilleté is produced.
