I’m high on Cannelés!

Oh yeah, they are really addictive those little treasures!!!When I was seeing them in bakeries or shop around France I never had the urge for them, but that was because I’ve never tried them!!!Then, some time ago, I saw them again here…So last time I’ve been in France I finally bought Cannelés mold (because you
