Chef Nicolas Lambert presents his take on the famous Galette Des Rois with an inverted caramelized puff pastry, a homemade almond “frangipane”, and Madagascar vanilla almond praliné. Presented in a timeless box, the Galette comes complete with a hidden ceramic fève and golden crown.
The Galette Des Rois, a traditional French pastry with roots dating back to Roman times when the festival of Saturnalia involved selecting a “king” through a lucky bean hidden in a cake. This culinary tradition evolved over the centuries, culminating in the modern Galette Des Rois, where a fève (small trinket) is hidden in the almond-filled puff pastry, symbolizing the crowning of the “king” or “queen” during the celebration of Epiphany in early January.
This beloved celebration marks the end of the Christmas season and is the perfect time for families to come together and indulge in the rich, buttery goodness of the Galette Des Rois.
