Strawberry Papaya Smoothie Eclairs | Choux Pastry Recipe | Strawberry Custard Filling

These strawberry papaya smoothie eclairs are extremely fruity and delicious. It combines the goodness of berries and papaya to create a flavour right out of the tropics! You may be on the fence about the flavour combination, but believe me, it works wonders! The choux pastry recipe is used to pipe 10 cm eclairs which are filled with instant strawberry custard and topped with a decadent strawberry papaya buttercream frosting using the Wilton 6B tip.

I’ve used the ombre buttercream frosting technique using a cling wrap.
