cream horns
Explanation:
That's the native British non-technical term for them, anyway. Much beloved by Alan Bennett characters etc. Not the same instrument as canutillo, but preserves the musical theme at least. Maybe call these "cream horns, Cadiz-style" o algo asi? Pictures and descriptions here:

If you check my first reference, kricketcakes.com, it says:
What I learned, after extensive internet research, is that a cream horn is made with a puff pastry exterior and filled with any number of creamy pastry fillings- pastry cream, custard, sweetened whipped cream, or butter cream.

So I think cream horn on its own covers all the different possible fillings, gaditano or otherwise.

agree  Noni Gilbert Riley: Yes, but not cream (always understood as nata) - unless you want to say sth like "creamy custard filling". The shape may vary but in fact very likely to be cornet shaped.

neutral  Carol Gullidge: simply known as "cream horns" despite the filling, which is indeed artificial/custard/confectioners cream, and not the real thing!
