They are soooo delicious and Saint Emilion is famous for canneles. (not to mention great bordeaux wines and we our barrels from the Darnijoux family in that city)
I just looked at the cannele molds on Provisions and they are gorgeous! They are very expensive, but if you are going to get into making cannele the copper ones are the best. I tried using the rubber ones and they were difficult to use.
I spent weeks trying many, many different cannele recipes after falling in love with those wonderful little sweet things in Saint Emilion about 8 years ago. My favorite is from Pascal Rigo's cookbook "The American Boulangerie" , Canneles de Bordeaux. Imagine my delight that after making at least 20 dozen from different recipes to not only find the perfect cannele, but to discover that he has a bakery in San Francisco where I could buy them!
