I made strawberry custard with choux baked in a muffin pan that looked delicious. I cut off the puffy top of the choux and added the Strawberry Diplomat and the strawberries in it. Strawberries are either whole or chopped for a better texture and richer taste than a creamy choux. It still tastes good even if you leave it hard enough in the fridge and eat it cold. If you don’t put the muffin paper cups in the muffin pan and just bake them, the sugar will move freely and bake and the shape will get distorted, so you have to use muffin cups to get a nice shape. It puffs up a lot, so I think I need to put in less flour than I thought it would to bake a good cake.
