I've been experimenting!  I'm getting closer, though I'm not there yet.  Baypuppy's right about the tofu and ener-g.  Plus I added some guar gum, and I think that may help, too.

  Hey, it's never wrong to cut the grass topless!

I do it every Tuesday!!!!

Who can say Topless Tree Thrashing Tuesdays?????  :D :D :D

WooooooHoooooo!  I'll bring the tequila!!!

Are you familiar with omni pate a choux?  I mean like, the method?

It means "paste of cabbage".  Don't know why they call it that.

Oh, the French, ma cherie.  Je m'appelle Tkitty!  Ca va?

How's this coming? I'm really curious about this, because I've been looking for a recipe for vegan cream puffs for ages!

Tkitty, you said that you've been experimenting and taking notes. Anything to share with the rest of us so we can give it a try, too? Maybe if we pool our resources, we could solve this problem!

I found one!!!

PROFITEROLES
Almond Whipped Crème (Make this the day before to be sure it will set)
1/2 cup plain soy creamer
1 tablespoon agar flakes
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/2 block (6 ounces) lite silken tofu
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract

Combine creamer, agar, and sugar in a saucepan and heat gently until agar dissolves and the mixture becomes translucent and begins to thicken. Remove from heat. In a blender, combine tofu and extracts, and scrape the agar mixture into the blender. Whiz together until well blended and smooth. Chill for several hours. Once set, whiz again in the blender to soften, as it will have become very firm.
-----------------------

Cream Puff Pastry
3/4 cup unbleached white flour
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Pinch nutmeg
3/4 cup water
6 tablespoons Earth Balance margarine
6 tablespoons mashed potatoes
1 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch turmeric (for color--may be omitted)

Place flour, salt, and nutmeg in a small bowl and stir through. In a saucepan, bring the margarine and water to a boil, then remove from heat and add the mixture of dry ingredients. With a wooden spoon, stir vigorously for about one minute. Place the saucepan back over low heat and cook the mixture for about two minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.

Combine the mashed potatoes, baking powder, and turmeric, and add the mixture gradually to the mixture in the saucepan, mixing well between additions. Form the dough into 12 medium-large balls and drop onto an oiled cookie sheet. Bake at 400 for about 30 minutes, then remove and allow to cool completely on a cooling rack.
-------------------

Mocha Sauce

10 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons coffee extract (or more, to taste)
1/4-1/2 cup plain soy milk

Combine the chocolate and water over a double boiler and heat gently, stirring constantly, until melted. Add soy milk as needed to thin the sauce to a pourable consistency. Once the mixture becomes smooth and saucy, remove from heat and stir in the extracts. Use immediately or reheat to serve.

To assemble: Slice the cream puff in half, and place a generous spoonful of well-chilled almond crème on the bottom piece. Top with the other half of the cream puff, and then drizzle the warm sauce over the top and serve immediately.

oh wow. I have a day off from work coming up next week which I requested off in order to prepare for school however, making these sounds like SO much more fun :D if anyone tries this be SURE and let us knwo what results you get!

whoa... I want to try this, but it seems too much for me! plus, I don't have all the ingredients on hand - but what a find!

I NEED a vegan bakery to go to - just to try this kind of stuff, see what I like the most, and then try to make it myself. ah well... maybe I'll take a vegan baking course somewhere and open up my own (yeah right).
