I am on a quest for venoisserie perfection. The goal here tonight was not just kougin amann, but kouignettes, in the style of Maison Georges Larnicol. In the future, I will embellish with chocolate, and framboise, and praline, and pistachio. But for the first kiss, it is only butter and sugar and caramel. Deep, rich, caramel, pulled only at the last moment.

I savor, and savor, and dream ahead to the possibilities.
