Oo-la-la, Patisserie!

2/13/2014

Our blog is all about those little random "Extras" connected to our books, and * OH, MY * this week, I have the perfect Valentine's treat for you, dear ones! You'll recall if you read Jake and the Gingerbread Wars, how the kids stop in to a French-style patisserie in London. While we were working on those scenes, I said to E, wouldn't it be great to give our readers a peek into a real patisserie? He agreed, but wow, Youtube sure delivered beyond anything we could've hoped for. We found you this gorgeous little short film by Bastiaan Blockmans that will let you share in the wonder Jake must have felt while wandering through Marie's little shop, even a glimpse behind-the-scenes of how they make such incredible dainty treats.
Of course, Patisserie Ducubo in the film is in the modern times, not Victorian, and it's in Belgium (well, they speak French there, kids). But ((SPOILER ALERT)) you may have heard that Belgium is the chocolate capital of the world. Need I say more? (Now you know why Napoleon invaded.) Enjoy! Oh, and Happy Valentine's Day. But if you've got no Valentine this year, don't worry ~ chocolate loves you. And so do we. :)
