tetulle

Tetulle is a traditional French pastry, originating from the region of Provence. It is a small, round cake made from a simple dough consisting of flour, sugar, eggs, and butter. The dough is rolled out, cut into circles, and baked until golden brown. Tetulle is typically served plain, dusted with powdered sugar, or accompanied by a dusting of cinnamon. It is often enjoyed as a sweet treat, especially during the Christmas season, where it is a popular accompaniment to Christmas pudding and other festive desserts. The name "tetulle" is derived from the Occitan word "tetula," which means "small cake." Despite its humble appearance, tetulle is a beloved pastry in French cuisine, known for its delicate flavor and satisfying crumb.
