The nutritionist's advice:
These small oriental pastries, which are usually very sweet, are offered here in a lighter version. They should only be eaten occasionally. Their main ingredients are walnuts and almonds. These oil seeds have the advantage of providing unsaturated fatty acids, including omega-3, which are beneficial for cardiovascular health.
