Pastry Cream Mix - 1 kg
Cold-prepared pastry cream, baking-stable, large-production format.
The 1 kg FUNCAKES Pastry Cream Mix transforms cold water into smooth, vanilla-flavored cream in 5 minutes, with no cooking required. A useful feature in the workshop: it remains stable during baking, so it can also be used on dough before baking.

Uses and yield
- Before baking: spread a thin layer over puff pastry or shortcrust pastry, then cover with fruit.
- After baking: fill choux, éclairs, religieuses, or doughnuts, or fill sponge cakes.
- Loosen the cream with milk for a rounder flavor, or flavor it with vanilla, coffee, praline, or lemon.
- For a quick diplomat cream, fold mascarpone into the prepared cream.
- Base recipe: 200 g mix for 500 ml cold water, whisked for 5 minutes until smooth, yielding approximately 700 g of cream.
- Full packet: 1 kg mix for 2.5 L water, yielding approximately 3.5 kg finished cream.
Please note: This cream's baking stability is a real time-saver in the workshop: it can be placed on raw dough before baking, unlike traditional pastry cream, which must be added after baking.

Frequently asked questions
Does this pastry cream really withstand baking?
Yes. Unlike traditional pastry cream, it remains stable in the oven, fryer, or on yeast or puff pastry, allowing it to be used before baking.
What is the difference compared with the 500 g format?
The recipe and yield per kilogram are identical; the 1 kg format (≈ 3.5 kg finished cream) is designed for regular production rather than occasional use.
Can water be replaced with milk?
Yes. Loosening the cream with milk rather than water gives it a rounder mouthfeel without changing its baking stability.
