Perhaps one of the first sweet memories one has as a child is clutching a stupendous chocolate palm<\/strong>. Savoring its burnt edges, for which my classmates would become my friends in a matter of seconds, I would watch them salivate with envy. <\/p>\n

I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like puff pastry palmeras<\/strong>. It is true that, years ago, the choice was between “with or without chocolate”, and now, to the delight of the most exquisite, we can also find them with lemon, egg yolk, white chocolate and even strawberry. <\/p>\n

Finding a good palm tree is not an easy task. There are some, but not so many really good ones. <\/p>\n

History of chocolate palm trees<\/h2>\n

At the time of writing this article, I wondered if there was really an interesting history about chocolate palmeras<\/strong>, or if it was rather an invention brought to us by the new times of gastronomic splendor. To my content, the chocolate palm tree has a history that dates back to the 17th century. <\/p>\n

They were created in France in 1645 by a pastry apprentice named Claude Gell\u00e9<\/em>, thanks to a mistake. The boy wanted to bake bread for his sick father. He had been instructed to follow a diet of water, butter and flour (I don’t know who the doctor was, but he must not have been very popular). The apprentice made a dough with these ingredients, folded it over and over again, and molded it into the shape of a loaf. When he baked it, he was surprised to see how the dough rose and the result was surprisingly good. <\/p>\n

In view of the result, he perfected his recipe, achieving great success. Years later he worked in Florence in the pastry shop of the Mosca Brothers, who claimed the invention of the puff pastry. <\/p>\n

In its beginnings, the “palmier<\/em>” or “palmier” was prepared with a thin puff pastry dough, sprinkled with sugar and baked in the oven. Chocolate and other additives came later, and have managed to further increase its popularity, since chocolate brings a softness and sweetness that contrasts perfectly with the crunchy texture of the puff pastry. The mixture of flavors and textures makes chocolate palmeras<\/strong> an irresistible and addictive sweet. <\/p>\n
