I recommend preparing the millefeuille with puff pastry and strawberries 8 hours earlier so that the cake with puff pastry has all the time to set and have the right consistency and taste, do not prepare it too far in advance because the puff pastries will no longer be crispy but rubbery; I recommend instead preparing the custard the night before to store it in the refrigerator so it will be nice and firm and cold. The dessert with puff pastries is filled with custard, whipped cream, and lots of strawberries, I also recommend trying the DESSERT WITH PUFF PASTRY AND CHANTILLY CREAM.
