The Galette des Rois
If it’s January in France, it’s time for the Galette des Rois, a traditional French creation made in celebration of the Epiphany. This year at Le Grand Contrôle, expect an explosion of vanilla in every bite as we reveal our Galette des Rois for 2024.
A celebration in vanilla
A tribute to this precious spice, every ingredient in Chef Aymeric Pinard’s Galette des Rois has been meticulously selected to offer an intense yet refined tasting experience. But what makes this Galette des Rois so delicious? The secret lies in a unique infusion process. To create Chef Aymeric’s galette, even the flour has been infused with roasted vanilla, bringing an incomparable aromatic depth.
Panela sugar is infused with Madagascan vanilla to add a naturally fragrant sweetness, vanilla-infused almonds provide a subtly rich, vanilla-scented texture, and even the baking process is pure innovation — the galette is baked with vanilla pods in the oven, allowing the vanilla to reveal all its aromatic power.
Experience the tradition
In line with French custom, inside the galette, a hidden figurine or fève is placed, and the person who finds it is crowned king or queen for the day. At Airelles, we’re in favour of every tradition that encourages family and friends to gather, share a delicious treat, and have some fun.
Reserve your Galette des Rois and try out this classic French treat for yourself!
