Information

During pregnancy, it is very important to take care of your health and follow a healthy and balanced diet. That said, you can eat Paris Brest during your pregnancy, provided you meet certain criteria. Paris Brest is a French pastry that contains cabbage dough, pastry cream and tapered almonds. It is therefore rich in carbohydrates and lipids, in terms of nutrients. However, it is important to check that pastry cream is made from pasteurized milk or UHT milk, because raw milk can be dangerous for health. It is also recommended to consume it in moderation because it contains many calories. In general, pregnant women are advised to eat small portions of pastries and accompany them with a source of protein, such as cheese or nuts. In addition, avoid consuming products that contain raw eggs, as they can contain bacteria dangerous for health. In conclusion, you can eat Paris Brest during pregnancy, but it is important to meet the criteria mentioned above and consume the product in moderation.

All these recommendations are given as an indication based on ANSES information and cannot replace the advice of a health professional.
