It's an enchanting time of year. Between Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve, we take the opportunity to enjoy some enchanting entertainment, go in search of gifts to slip under the tree, and get together with loved ones at festive banquets. And one of the stars of the festive season is, of course, the traditional Yule log, which rounds off a convivial meal synonymous with reunions and precious moments.
But for those with a sweet tooth, the Yule log is serious business. In the heart of bakeries, patisseries and hotels, talented pastry chefs strive year after year to create gourmet creations to garnish our festive tables and contribute to those precious moments with loved ones. It remains to be seen which logs will please our guests this Christmas 2024.
For the festive season, Alain Ducasse 's Manufacture du Chocolat, cookie factory and ice cream parlourunveil a range of gourmet treats that take us back to the world of The Nutcracker. These creations are sure to decorate any festive banquet, transporting sweet tooths into an enchanted fairytale before they can be savored. For the first time, the expertise of all three factories is brought together in a Frosted Yule Log!
Conceived by Marcelo Mabilia, the head ice-cream maker, this gourmet Yule log brings generations together with a combo of sweet, comforting, childhood flavors. Beneath a fine, crunchy layer of dark chocolate is a hazelnut crunch and hazelnut praline ice cream, nestled in the heart of a three-vanilla ice cream. The perfect combination of freshness and indulgence to round off even the most lavish of festive banquets.
