### How to Make Berry Cream Pastry Puffs
1. **Prepare the Puff Pastry:** Thaw and roll out the puff pastry. Cut into squares or circles, then bake in the oven until golden and puffed.
2. **Whip the Cream:** Beat heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. For an extra touch, add lemon zest for freshness.
3. **Assemble the Puffs:** Once the pastry shells have cooled, slice them open or gently hollow out the centers. Fill generously with whipped cream.
4. **Add Berries:** Top with a vibrant mix of fresh berries. For an elegant finish, dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with honey.
5. **Serve:** Enjoy immediately for the best texture and flavor!
