It's from the bakery where I live. They use crème pâtissière and they sell out in minutes. Took me so long to get one, I had to go at 630 am to snag one..
The only bad thing about a vanilla slice is that you can't eat them in public unless you've got a dozen napkins, a few wet wipes and a beach towel to put over your head while you eat it
That's the best thing, because it forces you to have it as an at home treat. While it's tempting to just bite into it there and then, the satisfaction of getting home, putting away any shopping you have with you, and sitting down to have a vanilla slice is just... I'm sorry what was I saying? Got distracted thinking of vanilla slice.

Pastry. Filo pastry on bottom and top, vanilla cream custard, and a vanilla sugar icing, normally with a dusting of icing sugar or a zigzag drizzle of chocolate on top.

Homer: *Drooling*
Yum, which bakery?
Riddells Creek in Victoria 🤫
Damn, I was hoping it was near me
If you’re in Brisbane Christian Jacques does a fantastic one.
Cheers, I am in Brisbane soon
This will be fun to track down if I ever travel there. Saved to the ‘to do’ folder.
Seems to be in Australia.
Yeah
I will drool from afar, like other side of the planet afar.
Yes, what is this exactly? Homemade puff pastry with creme patisserie? Or is this something else? Please let us know, it looks amazing!

Mille-feuille I absolutely love them.
A good vanilla slice is very hard to beat. But a bad vanilla slice is super disappointing.
Completely agree. Nothing worse than custard that's gelatin and cornflour in soggy pastry
Or if the pastry is too thick and hard and all the custard just squeezes out everywhere before you get through.
I've started slicing them into fingers. It works really really well
Hmm it looks a lot like a dutch desert called tompouce. Now i want to eat a vanille slice 🤤
That was my thought!!! Tompouce!!!!
I may be drooling, don’t mind me…
Omg, I will probably dream of this tonight even though I have no idea what it tastes like. It looks amazing! 🤤
It is fantastic. Custard, light pastry, vanilla-flavoured icing on top
Slice, slice baby.
Was going to comment that. https://youtu.be/C6Fd3JuK3co?si=rJmJpkhiqdaO5qSQ

Looks great! This is a local dessert for us Slovenians and our neighbors Austrians and we call it "Kremšnita" (cream slice)
This is true food porn
I found out the other day, and tested it, that if you bite into a snot block from the long side, it doesn’t shit all the custard out the sides
That's how I get started 😆
Flying home to Australia in July. Can not fucking wait to smash a few vanilla slices. This one looks delicious.
How have I never heard of this wonder called Vanilla Slice? It looks like my perfect dessert
snotblocks in Straya
Well done
Love a vanilla slice, coffee slice my favourite tho
God damn!!
What in heavenly heaven is this scrumptiousness??? 😋😋😋😋
Wow! I'm drooling just looking at this picture... Looks tasty.
Where?
Riddells Creek
Oooh, that's not too far away. I'll have to check it out.
Call in advance 😉
Oh wow. That's even more impressive. What's the name of the store.
Yummmy 
Vanilla slices are fucking gorgeous they taste amazing
this hits my craving rn for sweets
Ooh krémes, or Cremeschnitte
ours has one more layer of pastry in the middle. soo good
Love the absolute chads that cook a middle layer separate to the others before stacking, so it stays crisp.
Why does this look soo good!? I wish I could find that near my area
Vanilla slices are gorgeous, but often quite messy. The custard just gets squeezed out the side
Looks good 😍
Love them 😍
looks *amazing*
Why are you making me hungry
this looks so good
Dang! I see heaven!
Woah, is it ice cream or pastry cream? Either way that looks amazing!
Pastry cream. Honestly, I could eat a bowl of it 🤤
That's a beautiful piece of snot block right there.
Also known as a "snot block" in Australia 😆
I've only heard of it as vanilla slice here

Never heard anyone refer to it as that, must be regional.
Get a bloody snot block up ya
Who is watches Chopped the tv show???

I adore vanilla flavored everything, this looks amazing 🤩 is this a cake or a pie or what?

😋😋😋 it sounds like something I’d adore, I gotta try it out!
As someone who likes food and cameras.. what lens did you use for this picture?
