Christophe Louie, the King of Panettone, opened his own bakery a few weeks ago! A bakery where you can find his panettones, but not only. For this year's Epiphany, the man we've become accustomed to for his Panettone des Rois, is offering two galettes: one traditional with frangipane and the other with hazelnut and lemon confit.

We didn't expect him to do this, and yet, surprise! This year, Christophe Louie is offering us not one, but two galettes des Rois in his new bakery. And it turns out to be one of the best frangipane Galettes des Rois we've tasted at our table, which was made up of around fifty Parisian Galettes des Rois.

Made on a base of inverted puff pastry, topped with a good frangipane creammade from crème pâtissière married to an almond cream flavored with an exceptional rum (El Dorado, with notes of vanilla and dried fruit), it's to die for. In any case, if you're looking for a creamy, well-flavored frangipane galette des Rois, Christophe Louie is the place to go!

For those looking for a little pizzazz, Christophe Louie also offers a galette des Rois called"L'audacieuse". Also based on inverted puff pastry, this creation stands out for its hazelnut frangipane cream, enhanced with IGP preserved lemon. This sweet treat is topped with a hazelnut shortbread.
