Sweet & Sour Summer Sweets

From Fauchon's signature éclair series, the Éclair Mangue Banane will be available for a limited time starting Wednesday, July 19.

Inside the delicate choux pastry, a lightly sweetened caramel cream and mango sauce infused with lime are encased, offering a refreshing finish after a gentle sweetness.

Topped with a marigold, a flower that blooms in early summer, it further enhances the summery mood.

In addition to mango, a lineup featuring plenty of lemon will also be introduced.

Particularly noteworthy is the new Lemon Stollen Citron, a novel take on the traditional Christmas baked good, designed to be enjoyed even in summer.

Made with French lemon peel, cultured butter, honey, and pistachios, it strikes a fine balance between refreshing acidity and flavor, with a light texture perfect for summer tea time.

Other offerings include "Bichons" (mango and citron), a regional pastry from near Lyon, France, featuring shell-shaped puff pastry filled with lemon or mango cream, and "Citron (Lemon Cheese Cream)," a refreshing lemon cake finished with lemon icing and piped with lemon cheese cream. These sweets are perfect for a light treat even in the heat.
