La Galette des Rois 2025 Louis Vuitton by Maxime Frédéric: a subtly chocolatey creation

Attention all January queens (and kings)! Fashionable pastry chef Maxime Frédéric revisits the Galette des Rois with an ultra-gourmand twist that melts our taste buds. For Louis Vuitton, he transforms this classic into a chocolate creation that we dream of crowning on our tables!

Beneath a crisp Viennese puff pastry, delicately enhanced with cocoa powder and given a Louis Vuitton Monogram makeover, lies an irresistible crème frangipane. The magic combo: a smooth pastry cream with Madagascar vanilla and an almond cream with raw powder. At the heart, a melting ganache combining the deep notes of dark Madagascar chocolate (40%), Vietnamese chocolate (75%) and Tonka bean.

And because a luxury galette is nothing without an iconic bean, Maxime Frédéric hides Vivienne, the House's cuddly mascot, in porcelain. An it-galette right down to the last detail!

Louis Vuitton's Galette des Rois 2025 is available in formats for 3 or 6 people by click and collect at LV Dream, until January 31, 2025, or as a solo version to be enjoyed on site at Café Maxime Frédéric at Louis Vuitton.

This time it's clear: everyone will want the bean!
