Wondering what's in store for Christmas 2024? Wait until you see the delicious and pretty logs from La Grande Epicerie de Paris - you're bound to fall for one of them!
For the festive season, La Grande Épicerie de Paris is pulling out all the stops and paying tribute to Paris, the city of lights and gourmet delights. The Eiffel Tower invites itself into the windows of Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche, right up to the pastry counters where pastry chef Thibault Leroy and his team at the rue de Sèvres laboratory unveil their exclusive creations. Logs, of course, to share or in individual formats, but also an elegant Christmas cake in homage to the City of Light. The choice of flavors is wide: chocolate, praline, pistachio, vanilla, orange blossom... The hardest part will be choosing! Shall we reveal them to you?
Gâteau Noël à Paris is set to be the star of the holiday season. A veritable declaration of love for Paris and hazelnuts, this chic, generous dessert features a majestic chocolate Eiffel Tower, perched on an airy hazelnut ganache and Art Deco-inspired dolcey chocolate lace, in a nod to the store. Chic, shocking and gourmet!
Beneath an intense black glaze, several layers follow one another before reaching the Dame de Fer (or rather, de cacao!): Peruvian milk chocolate mousse (50%), hazelnut caramel, puffed rice and praline crunch, hazelnut cream, and hazelnut cookie, all set on a chocolate roulade cookie base. Each bite transports you to an elegant and refined Paris, to be savored with your eyes closed.
The holiday cake for 6 to 8 guests, and the individual format, available at patisserie counters from November 28 to December 31, 2024.
La Grande Épicerie's 2024 logs redesign the Paris skyline in ultra-gourmand mode. First, the Pistachio, Vanilla and Orange Blossom Log features a joconde cookie, clouds of pistachio ganache, and infinite textures: vanilla-orange blossom mousse, pistachio frangipane cream, vanilla crème brûlée, and pistachio crumble. A real favorite!
Back to childhood with the Chocolate and puffed cereal log! Beneath the dark chocolate crème montée and joconde cookie, we discover a regressive, ultra-gourmand mix: milk chocolate mousse (40%), Sacher cookie, almond-cereal cream, chocolate streusel, almond-cereal crunch and soft chocolate cookie. A cuddly dessert to share... or not!
Logs for 6 to 8 guests, available at patisserie counters from December 5 to 24, 2024, and for individuals, from November 28 to December 31, 2024.
Paris has never been as gourmet as it is at La Grande Épicerie.
