Indulge in Pastry Heaven on Barge Trips in France
These six spectacular pastries turn barge trips in France into a feast
for the senses!
(firmenpresse) - One of the finest ways to explore all things French is on the waterways, on one of the many
stunning barge trips. In France, of course, perhaps the thing to check out first is the pastry
and desserts that Britain’s neighbour is so famous for. Choosing barge trips in France as a
way to explore this wonderful place will not disappoint, and below are some of the must-try
pastry specialities you are sure to be sampling along your way.
Kouign Amann
Originating in the north of the country, these are similar to croissants but sweeter and
crunchier. It’s a really unusual but completely out-of-this-world treat and rarely divides
audiences!
Macaron
The not so humble macaron is a French staple, and barge trips in France are likely to lead
you to trying a few, either on board or in a local cafe. The delicacies originally came from
Italy, but have been made in France for centuries, which is why they are so commonly
associated with the country. Try them at different bakeries along the route and pick a
favourite.
Paris-Brest
This is one of the most captivating taste explosions you’ll probably ever try. The Paris-Brest,
originally made to celebrate the cycling race between the two cities, has got a spectacular
praline flavour that will leave you speechless.
Éclair
These éclairs are not like the ones you’ll get at home from the supermarket. Traditional
French éclairs use delectably flavoured crème pâtissière and take the taste to a completely
different level. They might not seem as exciting as some other things you’ll find in the
bakeries of this European food haven, but, when done right, they excel!
Canelé
This delight comes originally from Bordeaux and will have your tastebuds singing. It has a
thick outer crust which gives way to a buttery soft centre that’s flavoured with vanilla. One of
these makes the perfect after dinner treat.
Croissant
Where would mornings be without the croissant? No visit to this country would be complete
without a lovely buttery croissant to start the day, and even though these pastries are not as
sweet as the rest of the offerings on this list, the croissant deserves a mention for its
quintessential French-ness.
Savour the Moments
The country has so many great pastries that this list hasn’t the scope to cover them all!
Barge trips in France are a great way to visit out of the way towns and cities that you might
not have got to otherwise, and as such, are a great way for foodies to seek out the most
delectable offerings.
Perhaps the best way to get the most out of your experience on the waterways is to book
with a reputable tour company specialising in barge trips in France. Having a crew onboard
so knowledgeable about the country will surely help any quest for the perfect croissant!
