Mille Crepes with Strawberry Tofu Cream (Refined sugar free, Vegan, Gluten free)
Simple Mille Crepes with Strawberry Tofu Cream Recipe
Refined Sugar Free, Vegan, Gluten Free, Natural Ingredients
Mille Crepes is a classic French cake. Typically this layered cake is made from butter, eggs, heavy creams, sugar, white flour etc. We have created this recipe substituting such ingredients with healthier, natural options but keeping Mille Crepes’ dense, creamy, moist and flavorful array of textures in each bite. Our creation is truly delightful!
