Bonne Epiphanie 2016!

galette_des_roisOn the first Sunday of January, the French celebrate Epiphanie (Epiphany). On this occasion, we share a cake named galette des rois (Kings’ Cake), a pastry that has small charms baked inside. This pastry is also filled with frangipane, a cream made from sweet almonds, butter, eggs, and sugar.

I can’t wait to share this tradition with the members of Aux Petits Soins family on January 16 from 2-4 p.m. You will have to be kind because I will use local ingredients, therefore it will taste a little different. Nothing can replace the taste of real French butter!
