Frequently Asked Questions About Tompouce
What is a Tompouce?
A Tompouce is a Dutch pastry made with two layers of puff pastry, a thick filling of pastry cream and icing on top. The icing is often pink, though bakeries use other colors for special occasions.
What is in a Tompouce?
A Tompouce typically contains puff pastry, vanilla pastry cream and sweet icing. The cream is sandwiched between the pastry layers, while the icing covers the top; flavorings and icing colors can vary by bakery.
Where did Tompouce originate?
Tompouce is best known as a Dutch pastry, but its exact origin and the identity of its first maker are uncertain. It resembles French mille-feuille, a layered pastry that is often mentioned when explaining Tompouce.
Is a Tompouce the same as mille-feuille?
No. They are related pastries, but a Tompouce usually has two puff-pastry slabs around a thick layer of cream, with icing on top. Mille-feuille commonly has more pastry layers, though recipes for both can vary.
How do you eat a Tompouce without it falling apart?
Use a fork and knife, and cut gently with a back-and-forth motion rather than pressing straight down. The crisp top pastry can slide or crack against the soft filling, so some mess is normal even when you cut carefully.
Why is Tompouce orange on King's Day?
Dutch bakeries often make the icing orange for King's Day, a national celebration associated with the Dutch royal family and the color orange. The orange version is a festive variation of the more familiar pink-iced Tompouce.
Why is Tompouce usually pink?
Pink icing is a familiar traditional look for Tompouce in the Netherlands, but it is not essential to the pastry itself. Bakeries may choose other colors for holidays or special editions, including orange for King's Day.
Can you make Tompouce at home?
Yes. Bake puff-pastry sheets separately, fill them with chilled pastry cream, then ice the top sheet and assemble the layers. Let the finished Tompouce chill before serving so the filling firms up and is easier to portion.
How should you store Tompouce?
Keep Tompouce covered in the refrigerator because its pastry cream filling needs to stay chilled. Eat it as soon as practical: moisture from the filling gradually softens the puff pastry and takes away its crisp texture.
Can you freeze Tompouce?
Freezing Tompouce is not recommended for the best texture. After thawing, the pastry may turn soft and the cream can become watery, so it is better enjoyed fresh rather than frozen.

What is Tompouce?
A Dutch Tompouce is made from two crisp layers of puff pastry sandwiching a thick layer of pastry cream, usually vanilla-flavoured, with sweet icing on top. The icing is often pink, though its colour can vary for special occasions.
The pastry flakes readily, while the filling is smooth and creamy, making each bite rich and sweet. In the Netherlands, it is a familiar bakery treat, often enjoyed with coffee; elsewhere, it works well as an occasional café or afternoon sweet. With its pastry, cream and icing, it is energy-dense and offers little fibre: a 100 g portion has 382 kcal and 1.1 g of fibre. Sharing one or choosing a smaller piece can make it a lighter treat; coffee or unsweetened tea balances its sweetness.
