For some reason the profiterole, and choux pastry in general, has fear factor written all over it for many home cooks. This fear makes the elusive croquembouche a task most just won't even attempt, seeing it more as the ultimate Masterchef challenge handed down by the 'all things sweet' pátissier master himself, Adriano Zumbo!
Well, quite a few years ago now, when I was making gluten free wedding cakes 'on the side', I decided to try conquering not only choux pastry, but gluten free choux pastry!!! From memory I had even written it off as a failure before I began, assuming it would be just one of those things that could not be replicated as gluten free.
