More Popular Recipes that Use Pastry Cream: The Napoleon is everything I love about most French pastries - it's rich and delicate, not too sweet and filled with pastry cream. The next day, I got to work figuring out how to replicate that experience at home and have been making this recipe on the regular ever since. And that day, the Napoleon was calling my name. If you're anything like me, the pastry case at a good European restaurant is impossible to resist. The first time I ever ate a slice of a true European-style Napoleon pastry was sitting on the patio of a restaurant called The Alpenrose on a gorgeous fall afternoon in Vail, one of my favorite Colorado mountain towns. ( Who am I kidding with all this talk of wishes? I've totally made that three-times-a-day situation happen in my life.) If I could, I would eat a slice for breakfast, as a mid-afternoon snack, and for dessert later that night. The Napoleon dessert is a popular French pastry for good reason.
