While some are banking on tradition and safe value to avoid offending the most discerning gourmets, others are daring and proposing incredible creations for the festive season.
Such is the case with Josselin Marie, Chef des Cuisines at theHôtel de Vendôme, who has imagined a jewel box to die for.
Imagine a chic case containing a bracelet in the guise of a log!
Beneath the bracelet and the sugar paste base with its stitched leather effect lies a cake with wintry flavours.
On a hazelnut Dacquoise cookie, topped with a praline and hazelnut plume embellished with feuillantine, a creamy milk chocolate mousse blends delicately with the acidity of a clementine confit.
As for the dark chocolate lid, it gives the log its crunchy side.
