Christophe Louie, the King of Panettone, offers us this year, not one but two gourmet pancakes. For a season where butter is king, he who has accustomed us to his panettone des Rois, offers the traditional frangipane pancake and the other hazelnut and candied lemon.
We don't necessarily expect it in this register and yet, the pancakes of Christophe Louie are delicious. This year he offers us not one, but two king cakes in his new bakery. And imagine that it is one of the best galettes des Rois with frangipane, tasted again this year, among the slew that we are testing.
Made on the basis of inverted puff pastry, all garnished with a good frangipane cream made from pastry cream combined with almond cream flavored with an exceptional rum (Eldorado, 8 years old, with notes of vanilla and dried fruits), it is to die for. In any case, if you are looking for a Galette des Rois with frangipane creamy and well-scented, it’s at Christophe Louie’s place!
For those who want a little pep, Christophe Louie also offers a Galette des Rois with candied lemons. Also, on a base of inverted puff pastry, this creation is distinguished by its hazelnut frangipane cream, decorated with citron confit IGP. This little sweetness is topped with hazelnuts to add a little crunch.
Count on €36 for a traditional frangipane pancake for 6-8 people, €38 for a hazelnut and lemon pancake for 6-8 people.
