While chef Valentin Garnot has opted for safe bets with hazelnut pralineandchocolate caramel, this year there is also a pistachio log and a chestnut cream log. Available in sizes for 4, 6, and 8 people, the logs also come in individual versions, except for the latter, perfect for small appetites or if you can't agree on a flavor with the whole family!

Inspired by the entremets of the same name, the Hazelia log combines the crunch of hazelnuts with the sweetness of praline, for a veritable cloud of melting delicacy on the palate, so gourmand and regressive that it takes you straight back to childhood. Sprinkled with caramelized hazelnuts, it recalls the taste of chocolate spread, with its vanilla ganache. A sure bet, if you don't know which one to choose!

Thechocolatelog will appeal to lovers of dark chocolate, very intense without being cloying, with its soft biscuit that takes precedence over the rather discreet crunchiness of the puffed rice. We appreciate the lightness of these mini logs, which are easy on the stomach and can be eaten endlessly!

New this year is the pistachio log in all its forms, from soft sponge cake to crispy biscuit, topped with homemade praline and crushed pistachio pieces, with a creamy orange blossom ganache.

As for theMont Key, only available in a large format and in a limited edition, it is reminiscent of snow-capped peaks with a crunchy hazelnut and generous chestnut cream, a vanilla ganache, wrapped in white chocolate, and a creamy blackcurrant that adds a touch of acidity to the rather sweet whole.

For the holiday season, you can also opt for plain or chocolate panettone, citrus gingerbread cake, Monkey Roll, a small gourmet pecan brioche, or the delicious little gingerbread monkey, the purchase of which supports the work of the Jane Goodall Institute.

These are real treats that are not to be missed this holiday season. Log cakes for four or more people will be available in bakeries in the capital starting December 11, and smaller log cakes are already on display!
