Beaucoup Bakery holiday cookies‘Tis the season for holiday pastries and special treats from Beaucoup Bakery & Café (2150 Fir Street), and this year, the team is launching several new creations that are sure to induce visions of sugar plums and jolly smiles. Starting November 28, 2017, customers can get into the festive spirit with Chef Betty Hung’s Gingerbread Financier, Gateau Basque, Alsatian bread Kugelhopf, Orange Cherry Double-baked Chocolate Croissant, Pecan Banana Sage Chocolate Tart, Mulled Wine Pear Bostock, hearty Potato Raclette Tarte, and a gift box of assorted holiday-spiced cookies.

There are six kinds of holiday cookies, including Spiced Rye Sablés, Rye Ginger Cookies, Smokey Russian Tea Cakes, Malted Coffee Thins, Chocolate Pistachio Sandwich Cookies, and Pecan Praline Shortbread. Customers can order a dozen for $25 and two dozen for $50, all wrapped in a white holiday box with a red bow.

“This is our first holiday as bakery owners and we could not be more proud of our team for developing such delicious new menu items,” explains Hung, who co-owns Beaucoup Bakery with her brother Jacky Hung. “This season, we really wanted to develop pastries with unique and classic flavour profiles that are often found in France. For example, we have wanted to do a Kugelhopf for a while now. I loved Alsatian treats, and this is our tribute to the beautiful cake bread. We are very excited for everyone to try all our new items.”

Beaucoup is also celebrating the Basque region of France with its Gâteau Basque ($5.25), made with buttery almond pastry and filled with vanilla pastry cream.

The decadent Pecan Banana Sage Chocolate Tart ($6) features a crispy pecan feuilletine layer, sage banana compote, and Valrhona Manjari chocolate ganache. It is finished with pecan nougatine and banana bread.
