Kitchen Princess is a manga by Natsumi Ando and Miyuki Kobayashi in which every chapter is named after a dish. This is our own quick, family-friendly version of that dish, not the recipe from the book.
Crepes rolled into paper cones and stuffed with cream and fruit are a famous street snack in Tokyo’s Harajuku. The first crepe often comes out wobbly, so call it the cook’s snack.
Make it a learning moment: how thin can you swirl the batter? Hold a cooked crepe up to the light and see if light shines through.
