I made the most scrumptious chocolate eclairs as an early Valentine treat for my family. I used light spelt flour and now I am hooked on making French pastries! I love working with choux pastry since I have mastered using spelt flour. The recipe is below followed by a picture of my dear daughter enjoying her mom’s creation.<\/div>\n
