A speciality from the Bordeaux region, cannelés are these days fashionable all over France.They are chewy and caramelised, and it is impossible to eat just one!The old-fashioned cannel moulds were individual and made of copper, however these days you can buy silicone trays of them that allow you to bake up to around 18 at a time.
