Poisson d'Avril Fraise

A crispy fish-shaped pie decorated with strawberries, which are in season now, and sweet and sour raspberries. Under the abundance of fresh strawberries, almond cream and custard cream are combined with rhubarb confiture, a common daily food in France, to balance the sweet and sour flavors.

Poisson d'Avril

In France, April Fool's Day is called "Poisson d'avril. Poisson" means fish and "d'avril" means April. Chocolatiers and patisseries display fish-shaped chocolates, cakes, and pies on their shelves. In addition to eating fish-shaped sweets, children also play tricks by secretly sticking fish-shaped papers on their backs.
