The chocolate hazelnut filling makes these delish!

I’ve seen these La Boulangere Chocolate Hazelnut Filled Crepes at Costco for a while now and finally picked up a package to try and review.
Taste
These actually are pretty tasty! Not amazing but my husband had a few for breakfast over the weekend and commented on how they’re “not bad, actually pretty good”. We tried them at room temperature as well as heated. My husband preferred his heated but I found the crepe became a little tough when heated. I preferred them at room temperature. The crepe itself is not very flavorful, maybe slightly sweet and tastes…like a crepe. The chocolate hazelnut filling inside is the delicious part. It’s sweet, chocolaty and has a hint of hazelnut flavor. These are great alone but would be extra tasty with some vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. I think kids would absolutely LOVE these! They don’t exactly taste freshly homemade and the crepes are actually slightly chewy/artificial tasting but the filling inside makes up for that.
Cost
There’s 20 individually packaged crepes in the package and I paid $9.49 for the package. Not bad for a fun, unique item!
Convenience
The best before date is about a month from the date I purchased the crepes. It specifically states not to refreeze the crepes after purchasing. Each crepe is individually wrapped. These are great for either breakfast or lunch and previously stated I think kids would enjoy these.
Nutrition
Two crepes is 310 calories, 16 grams of fat, 200mg of sodium, four grams of protein, one gram of fibre, 23 grams of sugar and 39 grams of carbohydrates. So…yeah. Not healthy. I didn’t buy these thinking they would be healthy though! They’re definitely a treat item.
These were super fun to try and I don’t regret buying them. I probably wouldn’t buy them again but think they’re a fun, novel item to try that kids and teenagers would find delicious.

Crepes for dessert or breakfast? Savory or sweet crepes? Which do you prefer?
I shop Costco in Glendale, Arizona. I had finally found a place I could just go and get them (I love them and I love them cold or room temp. Never tried heating them!) They are filling and just right for me and my friends. However, when I went back to buy some a few days ago the crepes were gone!!! and replace buy the same company’s product but different. Looked like to much bread on what I saw so I didn’t buy any. Very disappointed, tried buying on line but they were more than double the price that Costco had (abt $5-6 a package from Costco) and the on-line prices ranged from 15.00 to 54.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OUCH!
9/22/24 Just picked these up today at our local Costco. Good news is, you won’t have to worry about the filling squeezing out onto your clothes. Bad news is, there is scarcely any chocolate hazelnut filling in these. The pictures on the packaging are misleading. Glad we tried them, but won’t buy them again. Fool me once…
How do you heat up this product?
Would you heat in a pan?
How long in microwave?
Would you put in air fryer-how long & what temp?
I ate them at room temp but you could probably microwave them for 10 seconds!
I find them tasting horrible. The texture is like stale pita bread and it has nothing to do with crepe. Not even close. Whoever says they are good evidently never tried the real thing.
What is the percentage of hazelnut content in the filling ? Thank you LW
Maybe 25% ?
Is there an expiration date on the package anywhere?
There was yes!
Are these crepes (Hazelnut) still available in San Diego Costco? I forgot which warehouse I found them…. Mission Valley? or Morena Blvd ? Thanks.
I would try calling your Costco to check!
I recently went to purchase a pkg of these and was told they aren’t selling these anymore. They make a great break treat I’m very sad I can no longer get these from Costco in Fredericton, NB
Just bought them yesterday in Naperville IL
