Let's start the year with a traditionnal French celebration: the Galette des rois! 

The cake is made of pâte feuilletée (puff pastry), frangipane (filling made from or flavored like almonds) or brioche (sweet bun). A fève (charm) in a shape of a figurine is hidden in the cake.

Come experience this beloved French tradition, and enjoy the delicious galette, made specially by our partner  Plaisir Sucré

If you get the charm hidden in the Galettes, you will be crowned Queen or King!
