Episode 9: Éclairs, Cream Puffs & Soft Stories | Beginner Baking Journey

Описание: Today I’m learning how to make éclairs and cream puffs, step by step.
I’m still new to baking, but every class feels like a small reset — slow hands, quiet focus, and a moment to breathe.

In this video, I take you through the full process:
• making choux pastry
• piping and baking the shells
• whipping the cream
• preparing the chocolate fondant
• assembling and finishing each éclair

And while I bake, I’m sharing a little bit of the story behind it — learning new skills in my 30s, rebuilding parts of myself, and finding calm in something as simple as baking.

If you love aesthetic food videos, soft storytelling, or simply want to learn how to make éclairs from scratch, I hope you enjoy this one. 💛

More baking, more soft stories coming. ✨
