About this deal
If you like this kind of dessert, I know you would also love my krumkake. Pastry, cream and fruit are the perfect dessert! These Cream Horns fit the bill perfectly! In Italy, these crispy pastries are known as "cannoncini" and can be filled with whipped cream, Italian pastry cream or mascarpone cream. You find them in all the pastry shops and are a traditional treat after Sunday lunch. Starting at the point of the cone, gently wind the pastry strip around the cone (taking care not to stretch or damage the pastry and overlapping the strip with the previous layer). The moistened edge should help hold the overlapping parts of the pastry together. In Australia, recipes and descriptions of this much-loved pastry start appearing in newspapers from the early 1900s.

Unfold one sheet of puff pastry at a time. Cut into 9 equal strips. (I like to use the folds that are already in the sheet to divide the sheet into thirds and then cut each third into three pieces. A pizza wheel works great for cutting puff pastry. If desired, using a piping bag and small round nozzle to pipe a little jam into the pointy end of each horn.
Often you will find these pastries filled with a little jam, cream (fresh or this delicious Italian meringue buttercream) and topped with a little bit of fruit like raspberries or strawberries. But these pastries are so versatile because fillings are only limited to your imagination! You’ll also need a baking tray, a ruler (to measure the width of your pastry strips) and a sharp knife. Chocolate: Either dip the baked pastry in melted chocolate and allow it to cool before filling, or drizzle it with melted chocolate after filling. We've had numerous requests from customers who have struggled to find a mould for cream horns, so we're delighted to say that afternoon tea need never be served without these delicious delicacies again!
