La Mont-Blanc

Cream on top like first snow. Do not flatten the mountain.

Tante Maëlle's note

How to make it

  1. Pour wheat batter and spread it thin.
  2. Cook it pale and soft on both sides, unless the guest asks otherwise (that is how the notebook recommends it).
  3. Smear the chestnut cream.
  4. Dollop the whipped cream.
  5. Fold it: Triangle. Fold in half, then in half again.

Price and cost

It sells for 6,50 €. At the usual helpings it costs about 1,25 € to make (0,40 € of batter and 0,85 € of fillings), before any discount and less for home-grown fillings. Mastery stamps and the market's charm cards raise the price; see mastery.

The notebook page

The page is missing at first. It turns up the first time you serve this crêpe well. Until then the stub reads:

A brown smudge with a white edge. Chestnut cream and whipped cream.

It belongs to the set Les Grandes, worth 5 pearls once every crêpe in it has been served really well.

Who loves it
