Cronut Inventor Dominique Ansel Unleashes the ‘Magic Soufflé’

First off, Dominique Ansel, the creator of the (in)famous Cronut, would like you to know that “It’s not so much about making the next Cronut. It’s about making something other than the Cronut.”

Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, behold: the Magic Soufflé. The new creation features a chocolate soufflé hidden inside a brioche infused with orange blossom water. The mini pastry tower also houses a touch of Grand Marnier and Ansel recommends consuming the dessert while it’s still warm and fresh.

If you happen to be in line for the Cronut tomorrow, staff will be offering samples to a few lucky patrons. The Magic Soufflé will debut this weekend at the Spring Street bakery in New York with a $7 price tag.

We’re currently taking bets on how long it takes before knock offs start popping up in LA.
