Truth be told, I never liked éclairs. I didn’t understand the appeal. All of the éclairs I had sampled were stale on the outside, soggy on the inside, and covered with bland chocolate glaze on the outside. I didn’t have high hopes for my first batch of homemade éclairs. I made them for my husband …
