Any day that's about celebrating custard-filled pastries is fine by us, so we can really get behind celebrating National Chocolate Éclair Day. And since it's a holiday, we probably shouldn't limit ourselves to just one eclair. I'll take two. OK, three, please!

You can buy éclairs at many bakeries (bonus if it's a French patisserie) or in the freezer section of your grocery store. Also, you can make them if you are talented like that.

Did you know? Éclair means "flash of lightning" in French - maybe because these treats are eaten so quickly.

Learn Some French

Enhance your éclair eating experience by learning some French while you munch on custard-filled goodness.

Famifi This: The kids (and mostly you) can't wait to eat chocolate eclairs? Well, here's a totally plausible argument for why you should serve your kids dessert first!
