Main ingredientsFlaky or puff pastry, whipped cream[1]

The horn shape is made by winding overlapping pastry strips around a conical mould. After baking, a spoonful of jam or fruit is added and the pastry is then filled with whipped cream. The pastry can also be moistened and sprinkled with sugar before baking for a sweeter, crisp finish.[2]

Creams horns are called cannoncini in Italy, kornedákia (Greek: κορνεδάκια) in Greece and schaumrollen in Austria.
