Crepes + Desserts - Santa Ana, California
Open tonight. Come get a crepe.
Elohim Crepes JD. An evening dessert stand on South Birch Street: crepes folded fresh on the griddle, mini pancakes, and fresas con crema, from 6 PM until midnight.
The stand
Sweet, folded, fresh
Everything is made to order at the stand, in the open, while you watch the griddle work.
Crepes
The namesake. Batter spread thin on the round griddle and folded around your filling, warm off the iron.
Mini pancakes
A tray of little pancakes, made for sharing, or for not sharing at all.
Fresas con crema
Fresh strawberries in sweet cream, the cup reviewers keep coming back for.
Dubai chocolate
The chocolate everyone is talking about, done the Elohim way.
Gansito shake
The classic snack cake, blended into a shake.
Churro cheesecake fresas con crema
Churro cheesecake meets fresas con crema. Enough said.
Their words, over the stand
"Dios siempre por delante"
The stand lights up at 6. The neighborhood knows what time that is.
