Following my first visit to the Café Luitpold, in Munich, I met a retired German pastry, and frequent visitor who learned his trade in France with Gaston Lenotre! We have heard of and French desserts, we had discussed and the discussion was fascinating, on the similarities and differences of our pastries, but even more on the influence that still exerts on our own.
end of your stay, to warm us after visiting the frigid summer residence of Witteslbach (the Bavarian royal family) to Nymphenburg in a snowstorm, we returned to the Café Luitpold. I was able to verify what our new friend by ordering that " flash" (in French text). The two halves of choux pastry enclose ... chiboust a cream and a line of coffee custard!
My dear husband preferred this Luitpoldtorte cake signature of the place, created in the 60s and made of sponge cake filled with apricot jam and chocolate ice coverage . It was very good.
