home made brioche in France

I  cut down on lovely cake intake for a while, but it didn't last. Now, I'm on more or less 2 cakes(or pastry a day...). I was going to be good in France, but that idea didn't last either. Because, in France, every cakes and pastry look soooo yummy and taste good, I had to try them.
I always love to try something rustic and look home made, so this time i tried a few things. 

Pistachio topping cake was filled with chocolate cream, light sponge with chewy texture... It was yummy.
2nd picture I bought were choux pastry bits and apple filled pastry. I bought them from small bakery when we visited a market. It was situated in one of the side streets, a lady in the shop told me her grandad baked them in the kitchen next door. I saw him! He looked a bit grumpy! But baked lovely pastry!

Next one I had was croissant chocolat and apricot tart from intermarche. they were delicious for supermarket. Much nicer than here. I bought pastries a few times there. Still chocolate was soft, buttery pastry... yum yum.

Since my trip to France, I had pastry few times, but they weren't as quite as the same, so, at moment, I'm giving up my pastries in mornings with my decaf coffee.

When we got to Douche, I was excited when I saw this on the dining table!

Wow! Home made brioche and jam! Unfortunately, this jam was already melted. Probably it didn't reach the temperature...anyway, I only stayed one night there, so, I took this bread home for my breakfast.  I really enjoyed it. (not too sweet either)
