Full description
Vanilla slices are a firm favourite in British bakeries, cafés and cake shops.
The vanilla slice, Mille-feuille (French 'thousand sheets'), Napoleon (U.S.), cream slice or custard slice (Commonwealth countries) is a pastry made of several layers of puff pastry alternating with a sweet filling, typically pastry cream. It is usually glazed with icing or fondant in white with brown (chocolate) strips
The origin of the mille-feuille is unknown. The Hungarian city of Szeged may have something to do with its origins. Carême (writing at the end of the 18th century) considered it of 'ancient origin'. It was earlier called "gâteau de mille-feuilles", 'cake of a thousand leaves'.
This one is huge, the size you would get in a generous café or cake shop, and contains a jam layer amoungst the puff pastry layers as well as lashings of vanilla pastry cream. You'd have to est it with the assistance of with a pastry fork!! Yummy ;)
