In the meantime, discover the two galettes imagined by Une Glace à Paris forEpiphanie 2019:
Galette glacée
One size 5 people / 34 euros
Emmanuel Ryon renews the genre of the galette des rois with this iced galette composed of pure butter puff pastry concealing an almond ice cream, melting meringues and sugared almonds. It should be eaten warm, after a short baking time (10 minutes in the oven at 150°C). The almond ice cream doesn't melt, protected by a meringue that itself becomes warm and crisp.

Galette classique
One size 6 people / 27 euros
For fans of the traditional galette, the "classic" galette features the famous and inescapable frangipane: the golden puff pastry conceals an almond cream scented with vanilla and orange blossom.
