Use Cases

How to fill Keep wet fillings out until the last 20 minutes. For very wet fillings, brush the inside of the shell with melted butter or a thin layer of melted dark chocolate first, this creates a moisture barrier and the shell stays crisp for longer. Mousse and parfait fillings hold well for up to an hour. Pipe with a small star nozzle for height and a clean edge. Quantities for a party One pack of 40 covers 10 guests at four canapés each, 20 guests at two each. For a drinks reception of 20 to 30 guests with a full canapé table, count two packs. Serving temperature Serve at room temperature for parfait and rillette fillings. Serve cold for caviar and seafood mousse, but bring out of the fridge five minutes before guests arrive, the butter in the shell tastes best slightly under cool.
