Trilogy of Flavors: French Pastries

It's a special edition of Whips of Dole this week!
In honor of Disney and Pixar's Ratatouille celebrating its 4th anniversary, we'll be highlighting and attempting some of our favorite French dishes and desserts this week! So let's kick things off with our favorite French pastry flavors! As you'll soon notice, each one involves chocolate, haha!

The Opera Pastry
Yes, this is one of Sandwich's concoctions
As mentioned in this post, any dessert containing some hint of coffee flavor is my weakness. With its coffee enhanced, nut meringue sponge cake and layers of chocolate buttercream and ganache, it's pure dessert bliss. - Shortcake

Chocolate Croissant 
I'm not a big breakfast person, but I'll gladly drop whatever I'm doing and munch down on a chocolate croissant. My favorite version is from Main Street Bakery in Walt Disney World. (Of course) - Sonic

Marjolane
Another pastry made by Sandwich
A classic french pastry, the marjolane is a rich layer cake made with jaconde (almond sponge cake), chocolate, and other flavored cream fillings. - Sandwich
