As you know Paris is known as two things - 1. the city of love (bleh) or 2. the city of baking. Whenever we are in Paris we sample some of the wonderful baked goods. My favorite sweet is a couple layers of filo dough and 2 apricots and some custard.
My moms favorite is a coffee eclair and my dad likes strawberry donuts.
Paris is famous for it's baguettes. There are many rules that bakers need to follow. By law the baguette can only contain 4 ingredients: wheat, water, salt and yeast. Did you know that the average french person eats a half of a baguette a day? Back in the 1900s the average french person ate 3 baguettes a day!
