An éclair ( or ) is a pastry made with choux dough filled with a cream and topped with a flavored icing. The dough, which is the same as that used for profiteroles, is typically piped into an oblong shape with a pastry bag and baked until it is crisp and hollow inside. Once cool, the pastry is filled with custard ( ), whipped cream or chiboust cream, then iced with fondant icing. Other fillings include pistachio- and rum-flavored custard, fruit-flavored fillings or chestnut purée. When the icing is caramel, the dessert may be called a ( ). A similar pastry in a round, rather than oblong, shape is called a religieuse.
