Maxence Barbot<\/strong>, pastry chef at the Shangri-La Paris<\/strong>, presents this year’s Triton<\/strong> log. A native of the Brittany coast, the chef pays direct homage to his homeland with this shell-shaped log. A truly graphic masterpiece.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Draped in shimmering dark chocolate and sprinkled with golden sparkles evoking a winter sunset, this Yule log reveals a refined texture and flavors. Its crisp chocolate and fleur de sel cookie hosts a Galand vanilla mousse and cream, accompanied by roasted pear marmalade with Christmas spices.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The design, in addition to evoking the Breton sea, is also reminiscent of a Christmas tree. On the palate, the balance of flavors is revealed : the lightness of the creamy vanilla mousse blends perfectly with the spicy sweetness of the Christmas-spiced pear marmalade.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Triton log, priced at \u20ac128, is available in a limited edition. It can be picked up at La Bauhinia restaurant from December 9 until December 31. It will also be served in individual portions at La Bauhinia restaurant during Christmas dinner.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Le Cheval Blanc Paris<\/strong> takes us on a journey through the \u201cTraineau Enchant\u00e9<\/strong>\u201d, a creation by Maxime Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric<\/strong> and his team. This log, combining chocolate and childhood memories, promises to make your festive table shine.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The sleigh evokes the ambiance of the Quai du Louvre hotel, thanks to its meticulous floral detailing, and its accompanying horse to fly off into enchanted dreams.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Composed of 75% dark chocolate, the interior of the sleigh hides its share of surprises : a vanilla rice pudding entremets, covered with an almond ganache, embellished with mandarin confit and orange caramel. Underneath this chocolate sculpture, we find a filled bar, both crunchy and light, evoking snow under a winter sky.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Available from December 20 to 25, this limited-edition Yule log is priced at \u20ac220 for 5\/6 people.<\/p>\n

For this festive season, chef Michael Bartocetti<\/strong> unveils a new Yule log of great graphic elegance. Come to the Four Seasons Hotel George V Paris<\/strong> to discover this delicately curved gourmet creation, inspired by a holly leaf, and flavored with chocolate, vanilla, pear and bergamot.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A traditional symbol of Christmas celebrations, the log’s holly shape offers a design at the cutting edge of refinement. Its silky chocolate exterior is decorated with sugar crystals evoking the scarlet berries of the holly tree, lending a festive, elegant touch that is once again reminiscent of the festive world.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This log also combines a crunchy puffed rice and gianduja with milk chocolate chips, accompanied by a melting cocoa cookie, offering a contrast that is both crunchy and creamy. At the heart, tapioca milk scented with Tahitian vanilla blends with pear confit with bergamot zest, bringing a light, fruity freshness. The whole is wrapped in a milk and dark chocolate mousse, subtly enhanced by a touch of lemongrass.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

All in all, a creation sure to dazzle chocolate, vanilla and pear lovers. Already available for pre-order, it can be picked up at the George V Hotel until the end of the New Year festivities. Price: 135 euros for 8 people.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Le Ritz Paris Le Comptoir<\/strong> and its pastry chef Fran\u00e7ois Perret<\/strong> present a B\u00fbche P\u00e8re No\u00ebl. Among a range of festive creations, this masterpiece reinvents the traditional shape of the log by transforming Santa’s beard into a fluffy madeleine : a tribute to the Ritz’s emblematic pastry.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This dessert combines a coconut cookie delicately scented with four spices, an airy coconut mousse, and a mango and lime compote embellished with pieces of fresh coconut.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This festively cozy signature log is available at \u20ac20 a piece.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For those with a sweet tooth, however, you can always opt for the full dessert package : a few logs in the shape of interlaced madeleines, gingerbread filled with orange marmalade, or vanilla caviar with a melting heart and white chocolate icing enhanced with gold leaf.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Lutetia Paris : a symphony of festive rhythms<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/h6>\n

A culinary treasure trove created by chef Nicolas Guercio<\/strong> for the Hotel Lutetia<\/strong>. The musical \u201cFlocon<\/strong>\u201d log takes on all the codes of Christmas and childhood.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A six-pointed star and an audacious version of Mont-Blanc, it dazzles the eyes as much as the taste buds. What more could you ask for ? The chef’s fantasies don’t stop there: inside this flake is nothing less than a music box.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With a simple turn of the crank, the white chocolate and pearlescent candy flakes begin to spin, diffusing glittering sparkles like a moving snow globe.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Beneath the first layer of snow (actually white chocolate) lies a base of sweet dough, followed by a soft chestnut cookie and a creamy chestnut cream, enhanced by a blackcurrant confit lightly spiced with Timut pepper. The whole is wrapped in a light chestnut mousse, topped with puffed meringue and covered with white chocolate, reminiscent of freshly fallen snow.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The limited-edition \u201cFlocon\u201d log, available by reservation only, will delight 6 to 8 people, and costs 145 euros.<\/p>\n
