Technical Stages :

• Slightly grease a baking tray.
• Using a decorating bag with a plain tip, pipe the puff pastry in a crown shape. Place 2 lines of dough side to side, then a third one straddled on the first two.
• brosser the surface with egg yolk using a brush.
• Sprinkle a few slivered almonds on the full surface.
• Bake in a warm oven (180°C - 356°F) for about 20 minutes.
• When finished, remove the puff pastry crown and leave to cool on the work surface.
• Using a knife, split the thickness of the crown into two.
• Garnish the lower part with praline flavoured butter cream. To do this, use the decorating bag with a large fluted tip.
• Place the upper part of the puff pastry on top (the one which has slivered almonds). Leave to harden in the fridge.
• Just before serving, sprinkle with icing sugar.
