A fresh and fruity eclair perfect for the summer! Feel free to fill and frost your eclairs however you desire. Note: Valrhona raspberry inspiration is quite an expensive ingredient, so feel free to frost with a traditional fondant icing or a substitute with white chocolate, and some pink food coloring. Freeze dried raspberry powder can also be added combined with the powdered sugar to add extra flavor.
