Mille Feuille, also known as Napoleon cake, is one of France's most elegant desserts, with its rich history and sophisticated preparation, delighting gourmets around the world. Its name, which means ''a thousand leaves'' in French, refers to the many thin layers of crispy puff pastry, between which is a creamy vanilla custard.
Using store-bought puff pastry and BAM vanilla cream mix, this dessert can be made faster and easier without sacrificing flavour and sophistication. When the classic Mille Feuille is upgraded with the addition of fresh raspberries and BAM salted caramel topping, a refreshing and colourful version of this sophisticated dessert is created, perfect for summer days. The combination of crispy pastry, smooth BAM vanilla cream and juicy raspberries creates a harmony of flavours and textures that will enchant any gourmet.
The preparation of Mille Feuille with raspberries and salted caramel requires some precision, but the end result is worth every effort.

Preheat the oven to 200 °C. Roll out the cold puff pastry to about 3 mm thick and cut it into three equal rectangles. Place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper and prick them with a fork.
Bake for about 15-20 minutes until the dough is golden brown and crisp. Set aside and cool.
Gradually add the BAM vanilla cream to the milk and mix well with a whisk.
Leave to rest for 3 minutes, then stir the vanilla cream again until the desired consistency is obtained. Transfer the vanilla cream into a piping bag.
Spread the BAM salted caramel topping evenly on the cooled puff pastry.
Spread dollops of vanilla cream on top of the caramel layer, then top with fresh raspberries.
Repeat with layers of puff pastry, salted caramel, vanilla cream and raspberries. Finish with a third layer of pastry and vanilla cream. Sprinkle roasted pistachios on top for an extra crunch.
Place the Raspberry Mille Feuille in the fridge for at least an hour to set the cream. Then cut into equal pieces and serve.
