4 Porcelain Twelfth Night Cake Beans - Masked Figurines

Beans for king's cake masked figurines 

We love the galette, don't we? With its light puff pastry and its good taste of frangipane, it's hard to resist the temptation to eat one, two or three slices!

Why a bean in the cake?

In the past, the bean was a porcelain figurine representing the nativity and the characters of the crib. Today, all fantasies are allowed and there is a multitude of beans that make the happiness of collectors.

Traditionally, the youngest child stands under the table and points to the guests who receive their share of the cake. The one who finds the bean is crowned and receives his or her crown and can choose his or her queen or king.

What are the ingredients to prepare a galette des rois?

The recipe of the traditional galette des rois is the one which is composed of a frangipane cream. The frangipane is an almond cream to which pastry cream is added. It is thus lighter and more delicious!

Prepare your own frangipane or opt for the frangipane preparation of La Patelière, it is just as good!
