Mulots Pâtisserie co-owner, Andre Guérinet celebrates Bastille Day with an Australian Baking Business masterclass.
Andre sometimes uses a sponge in the middle of the tart to trap moisture.
On 14 July, 1789, the people of Paris stormed the Bastille, a fortress-prison where people were jailed for arbitrary royal indictments. French pastry chef, Andre Guérinet from Adelaide’s Mulots Pâtisserie celebrated this year’s Bastille Day by showing Australian Baking Business how to make a chocolate raspberry tart.
Mulots Pâtisserie has been serving Adelaide fine French cakes and pastries since 1985, not only providing a large variety of individually handcrafted and detailed products, but also tailored to individual needs.
