Nutella Bostock
“The sweet, nutty flavours of the frangipane and Nutella”
Nutella, frangipane, golden brioche and tangy berries come together to make this delicious chocolatey take on a traditional Bostock.
A classic French pastry, Bostock was created as a way to use up day-old brioche. Soaked in syrup, generously smothered in frangipane and baked until it’s crispy on top, Bostock is a delicious cross between French toast and an almond croissant.
To change up this traditional pastry, we have added a chocolatey twist to the Bostock recipe. With a generous helping of Nutella and another slice of Brioche Loaf we have created this Nutella Bostock sandwich that is perfect for anytime of the day, whether you want a sweet treat for breakfast or something to go with your afternoon tea.
