Bakery in France - The Marvelous...

[Liisa]

Ok, I've tried to order this twice now. The first time I went late in the day and they were sold out. The second time, they served me a napoleon. I'm assuming that the Marvelous is different than a napoleon. I am very curious now and I really, really would like to know what this is!!!! Can anyone give me a description (or a picture...) of this pastry?

Curiousity is killing me!!!!

Thanks!

I had it once, it isn't a napoleon. The problem is I shared it with my kids, and we got other things that time, that we also shared. I remember liking this the best, and have also tried to get it again, but they never have it. It was chocolate cake, with a hint of berries in it, maybe some pudding. I'm not sure, but it was very good.

jcriket,

Thank you so much. I guess I'll just keep trying to get one each time I go. By your description, it sounds like I would really enjoy it. Hmmm... maybe if I go first thing when they open... I'll have to strategize this one!
