The End of December / early January sees the annual appearance of golden discs pastry heaven in French bakeries - the galette des rois - a frangipane-filled flaky pastry treat which marks the arrival of Epiphany.

In each one, a porcelain charm (called a fève) is hidden. The lucky person who is served the slice containing the charm is crowned the King or Queen and wins the honour of wearing the crown that accompanies each galette.
