Christmas log and teas at Mariage Frères

Do you love tea, really good tea? Would you like to make a change this year and offer your guests an original, gourmet Yule log? Why not opt for a Christmas cake or Yule log, flavored with Christmas tea from Mariage Frères?

After 6 months of research and testing, the Mariage Frères Tea House has perfected 2 Christmas cakes to round off your festive meal in style. Orderable online up to 2 days before the festive season and deliverable anywhere in Paris, these pastries are sure to please even the most discerning palate.

Your choice:

Midnight in New York (90€ - 8 people)
For a change from the traditional Bûche, we opt for the New York version, which is different in size, lightness and flavor. Contrary to what you might think, this entremet, which combines Christmas tea ganache, ginger orange confit and cookie coated with a melting gianduja bavaroise, is fresh and light. An ideal end to a hearty meal. This dessert, rich in different flavors, creates a perfect marriage.

Midnight in Paris (70€ - 6 people)
If you're old-school and think a log is a log (and easier to cut), opt for Midnight in Paris. The flavors of this log are similar to those of a Christmas cake, but it's a more gourmet version. With a denser texture and a Christmas tea cream that deliciously coats chocolate and Genoese cookie, you'll melt with pleasure.

Looking for a sweet break this winter? How about stopping off at one of Mariage Frère's tea rooms to enjoy Yuzu tea and pudding cake?
