4 but agree has to be odd number so 5. Either way none of that extra cream poured on the bowl nonsense

Portion size if profiteroles has always depended upon the pack size.

1 pack for me and the rest of you can sort yourselves out...

Well, this thread has come at a timely moment.

There's a pack of profiteroles in my fridge, which DH and I intend to attack tonight.

It's not a big pack, I had a quick look and can see that there are 8 profiteroles in there. Yet on the front of the pack it says 'Serves 5'.

So according to that, it's 1.6 profiteroles per person Shock

DH and I will of course have 4 each. Though it should really be 3 or 5, odd numbers look better on the plate.

5 or 6

TonTonMacoute · 18/01/2020 17:32

3 sounds plenty to me.

Knittedfairies · 18/01/2020 17:33

3 if I'm in company, at least 5 if solo.

If they are mahoosive they're not profiteroles - they're choux buns.

BigFatLiar I like your thinking Grin

doadeer · 18/01/2020 17:42

3 per person

P1nkHeartLovesCake · 18/01/2020 17:43

4! In restaurants that I’ve been too they always give 4, so that must be the correct amount.

However at home I have 6....

A croquembouche surely?
