Choux pastry is a marvel – I love how it comes together in a pan in a huge stodgy ball but by the time it comes out of the oven its light and airy. The profiteroles pictured are the second lot I made yesterday (and pictured in the dark so the pics a bit dodgy) – The first lot got demolished with no cream, sauce or chocolate before I could even get back in the kitchen. Vultures I tell you!
I’ve had my ups and downs with making choux pastry over the years but have finally sorted my ideal recipe out. I never use as many eggs as traditional recipes say – My mixture just went too sloppy and resulted in flat profiteroles/eclairs. Not any more!

Oh wow these look and sound so delicious! I love passion fruit, it has to be one of my favourite fruits! All linked up and thank you for the lovely mention x
Oh you are so punctual! Thanks so much for linking up again x
Such a heavenly looking dessert. I love the sound of the passion fruit with white chocolate, yum.
Thanks Julie – Its definitely a popular combination in our house!
Such a delicious combination and the profiteroles turned out beautifully! I can see why they didn’t last long at all 😉 It’s so typical to see chocolate drizzle, so it’s refreshing to see a change-up. I may be starting right at it, but I think the 2 eggs are missing from the ingredient list…? Thanks so much sharing with Made with Love Mondays and welcome to the series!
Oh well spotted – thanks for being so beady eyed! All fixed now. Thanks for the welcome into the MWLM gang 🙂
I love the sound of passion fruit and white chocolate! I haven’t made choux pastry for ages, this looks delicious 🙂
Thanks Petra – I always have to have a disaster bake after a long break from choux pastry but it soon comes back to me!
oooooh how good do they look? yummy what a delicious flavour combination too x
Thanks Jenny – They tasted rather yummy too (although I didn’t get to eat many!) x
Wow. That looks yummy. Thanks for letting me know about the link up. I’ll be sure to link up anytime I have something to share.
These look and sound amazing! I have yet to try making choux pastry though!!It´s also hard to get hold of passionfruit where I live unfortunately! The chocolate orange cake looks divine too!
*jumps up and down* I can make choux pastry!! Its one thing I like making but not eating! Not sure why- my husband would love these though. Beautiful photos, as ever 🙂

Makes me want to break out my piping bag and get some choux pastry made! I’m not a huge fan of normal cream filled profiteroles, these are far more appealing to me, I love passion fruit! x
COR! I am now well hungry after seeing all this. I’ll be honest, I’ll never be able to make anything like this. I am just a bit rubbish a things like this, but it’s OK. Can I come round to yours and you can make me some??? 🙂 x
making me hungry!
Oh wow too much loveliess in one post, I want it all! Thanks for linking up to #tastytuesdays
