1 cup of flour
1 TBSP of sugar

Bring to a boil and remove from the heat. Add the flour and mix vigorously with a spatula, put back on a low heat to dry the dough a few seconds. The dough does not stick to the pan.

Then pour the dough in a mixer or in a bowl and add the eggs one by one. The dough must be at the end smooth but not liquid.

Pour the dough into a ziplock bag or a pastry bag, for the swan’s neck, pipe few out S shape on a silpat or a cooking sheet with parchment paper and cook at 425°F for 15 minutes.
For the swan’s bodies, pipe oval choux on a silpat.
Brush some egg yolk on top of each for the color.
Bake for 15 minutes and reduce the temperature to 350°F and continue baking for 20 minutes or until dry.

To shape the swan, cut off the top third of each body and cut an half to make the wings.
Pipe the cream into the body, add the wings and neck, then sift confectioners’ sugar.
