This trubochki might be hard to pronounce, but it’s definitely easy on the mouth. Its melt-in-the-mouth quality makes up for the difficulty in saying it. Guess where I first tasted this trubochki? A a restaurant? No. At a bakery? No. At a special shop? Nope. At home! I first tasted it at home because it was my husband who made it. Or at least, that’s what I thought at first. It was a pretty embarrassing story. I don’t remember Mom making it, but I did remember her making something similar. Small pastries filled with cream? Yes, I did remember. However, I knew she didn’t call them trubochki. I told my husband this thought while I was munching on his trubochki. All he did was smile and tell me, “Cream Horn?” And the light bulb just shone brighter.
So I was able to eat trubochki when I was a child. But I called them cream horns. Well, in my defense, as a kid you pretty much call everything similar one name. For example, all pasta recipes are called spaghetti. I am pretty sure most of us have this silly little quirk when were still young. Anyway, after a slight banter because of my little memory, I just realized I was able to eat more than a few pieces. I wanted to blame it on my mother-in-law who taught me husband the recipe, but I wanted to remain on her good side. Yes, blaming this trubochki addiction to my husband.
