Guests can pick from a variety of made on-site fresh, creamy custard filling flavors that range from traditional staples to monthly featured flavors.

"Baked fresh on-site daily we offer the largest cream puffs you will ever experience. The all-natural recipe is simply addicting. Everyone that tastes one of our unique Beard Papa's confections craves it again the days following." says Mark Nathan, Marketing Director for the franchise.
It works like this: first, pick your outer shell from choices like Green Tea Éclair, Honey Butter, Crispy Almond, and more; then select a filling (Vanilla, Green Tea, or Chocolate). The result is what the Beard Papa's calls the world's best cream puffs according to customers, and they may be right.
