Glória — Yämmi Version with Lemon Icing

This is the formula published by Yämmi/Continente: puff-pastry rings are topped with sweet egg cream and an egg-white, icing-sugar and lemon glaze. It matches one documented Glória finish, but does not replace pastry-shop versions in which the baked ring is dipped in egg cream and sugar syrup. Glória's creator, date and first producer remain unestablished.
