Vol Au Vent Cases
Mini Vol Au Vents are light, crisp puff pastry cases designed for neat, bite-sized serving with a clean, professional finish. Made with a delicate, buttery pastry, each case bakes to a golden, flaky texture that holds its shape while providing a light, airy interior ready to be filled.
At 3.5cm in size, these mini vol au vent cases are ideal for creating small, elegant portions without the need to make pastry from scratch. Once warmed in the oven, they develop a crisp outer shell that pairs well with both rich savoury fillings and lighter sweet options.
These ready-to-fill vol au vents are a practical choice for entertaining, events and buffets, offering consistency in both appearance and portion size. Whether used for classic canapé combinations or simple desserts, they provide a reliable base for a wide range of dishes.

Why do vol au vent cases need to be heated before serving?
Heating helps restore the pastry’s crisp texture and brings out its buttery flavour, ensuring the cases are light and flaky before adding fillings.
How full should mini vol au vents be filled?
Filling them just below the rim keeps the presentation neat and prevents the pastry from becoming overly soft or difficult to handle.
Are mini vol au vents suitable for both hot and cold fillings?
Yes, they work well with warm fillings such as creamy sauces as well as chilled options like mousse or fruit, making them versatile across different menus.
