Napoleon (Millefeuille) Millefeuille literally means "thousand-feuille". It is actually a combination of multiple layers of puff pastry sandwiched with cheese. It has a crispy and tender texture.

There are two reasons why it is called Napoleon. One is derived from the Italian puff pastry "Naples", which later evolved into "Napoleon", which is also one of the English names of Napoleon cake.

Another theory is that this cake was originally made to have one hundred layers, but the final product only had more than thirty layers. Because it was too short, some people named it after the shorter Napoleon, so it became popular all over the world.

Napoleon is deeply loved by the French and can be said to be at the top of the French dessert list.
