He was making a dessert for the Prince of Wales, the future King Edward VII of England. Here, crepes are paired with a chocolate raspberry cream concoction that is truly delictible.

"What a fabulous crepe dessert! Someone in my family gave it 25 stars. A bit time consuming to make but worth every minute. Lovely with the white chocolate sauce, the mint and the fresh raspberry garnish." - Sherri

This is an excellent recipe that is surprisingly not too sweet. The liqueur is very subtle, I would add more, but my wife doesn't agree.

This is by far the best crepe recipe I have ever used. The crepes turned out BEAUTIFULLY and every other time I have ever tried to make crepes, they did not turn out well. I will use this recipe
