In France, it was made initially with a base of bread and apple, then Antonin Carême, a genius of Classic French Cooking, briefly a chef for Tsar Alexander I in Russia, created the charlotte with biscuits. In Paris he baptized it first as “charlotte à la parisienne“ and then “charlotte à la russe” (biscuits/ladyfingers with Bavarian cream ) . There are many versions of the charlotte today. One of the most popular is made with raspberry Bavarian cream and topped with whipped cream and fresh berries. But this chocolate version I really love. Try it!
