			The preparation of palmiers involves rolling out a sheet of puff pastry, which is a laminated dough made by alternating layers of dough and butter. The pastry is then generously sprinkled with sugar. The dough is folded from both sides towards the center multiple times, creating a log shape. This log is then sliced into individual pieces, which are placed on a baking sheet.

	~~== Preparation ==~~		During baking, the sugar caramelizes, giving the palmiers their characteristic golden color and sweet flavor. The layers of puff pastry expand, resulting in a light and airy texture.

			While the classic palmier is made with just sugar, there are several variations that incorporate additional ingredients for flavor. Some popular variations include:

	~~== Variations ==~~		* '''Cinnamon Palmiers''': Adding ground [[cinnamon]] to the sugar before folding the pastry.
			* '''Chocolate Palmiers''': Spreading a thin layer of melted [[chocolate]] on the pastry before folding.
			* '''Savory Palmiers''': Using ingredients such as [[cheese]], [[herbs]], or [[pesto]] instead of sugar for a savory twist.
