Puits d'amour

Puits d'amour is a traditional pastry originating from Paris. It was first mentioned in Vincent De La Chapelle's book Le Cuisinier Moderne, and it consists of layers of puff pastry rings. The pastry has a hollow center that's filled with strawberry jam, redcurrant jelly, or vanilla pastry cream. The top is usually dusted with sugar and lightly caramelized. The name puits d'amour means well of love, referring to the visual appearance of the pastry.
