Croquembouches – Choux Pastry Towers

Croquembouches : French pastry at its finest,
Elegant, festive and delicious, our traditional choux tower is designed for easy transport and fresh preservation – ideal for weddings and large gatherings.

Custom-made croquembouches

At SN Pâtisseries, we craft refined, custom croquembouches for all your special occasions, combining elegance, practicality and indulgence.

Two presentation styles available:

Stacked tier version (tambours):
Each level is delivered in its own box, designed for safe transport and refrigerated storage. The final assembly is done on-site for freshness and visual impact.
For gatherings exceeding 200 choux, we recommend keeping the centerpiece within this limit, and offering mini nougatine-based choux trios to guests – perfect for a beautiful and efficient buffet.
Mounted on covered polystyrene cone:
A classic and elegant look, where caramel- or white chocolate-glazed choux are arranged on a refined, covered cone. Ideal for a polished, traditional presentation.

Expertise & Logistics, Perfectly Executed

I had the privilege of training at the INBP in Rouen under Jérôme Languillier, World Pastry Champion, renowned for his technical excellence, precision, and creative approach to French pâtisserie.

Today, I use his exclusive recipes, including a humidity-resistant choux pastry and a silky pastry cream, ideal for weddings and elegant events.

Each croquembouche is transported in an insulated container, with each tier packaged separately, then assembled on-site to ensure freshness, stability, and flawless presentation.

The dessert is stored in a refrigerator or cold room, in specially designed boxes that preserve the texture and prevent any moisture-related damage.

Pricing & Tips for Your Croquembouche

Our croquembouches are priced per choux. The total may vary depending on the chosen decoration: the more intricate and edible elements are added, the more time and skill are required — which may affect the final price.

Choosing the Right Size for Your Event

Here are a few tips to help you select the perfect croquembouche size:

Guest Count

Plan for an average of 3 choux per guest. For pieces over 200 choux, I recommend combining the central croquembouche with individual servings (e.g. a trio of choux on a nougatine disc) for convenience and visual appeal.

Presentation Space

Ensure there’s enough room to present the croquembouche safely.
A taller piece will stand out more and make a striking impression during your celebration.

Event Style

For elegant occasions or weddings, a more impressive pyramid adds sophistication. Even with fewer choux, a rich decorative finish can provide volume and height.
For casual or intimate gatherings, a smaller, refined croquembouche can be just as delightful.

Flavours Available
Vanilla, coffee, caramel, chocolate, Grand Marnier… Other flavours may be available on request — let’s discuss what suits you best!
