      Generally speaking, French cuisine is not very vegetarian friendly and definitely not vegan friendly but it's getting better for sure. Althought if you come to Lyon you won't really be able to appreciate much of our specialty!

      It's instant pastry cream. It's mostly sugar, starch, dried non-fat milk, dried cream, and sodium alginate. A small amount is used to help stabilize creme patisierre or creme diplomat if pastries won't be eaten immediately. Not a shortcut, just good food science.
