Believe it or not, this is the first Galette des rois<\/strong> I buy in a pastry shop! It looks really nice, definitely different from the ones you can find in regular bakeries.<\/p>\n

I chose to buy it at Jean-Luc Pel\u00e9<\/a><\/strong>‘s shop, one of the main p\u00e2tisseries here in Cannes, because it was the only one to have a wider choice of flavours<\/strong>. Traditionally, the galette is filled with a frangipane<\/strong> cream, therefore with a strong taste of almonds.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, the simplicity of the filling didn’t really justify the relatively high price<\/strong> (20\u20ac for a 4-person galette), but I must admit that the galette was really good:<\/strong> I would recommend it<\/strong> to anyone. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
