A traditional French galette des rois pastry. Complete with golden card crown just like the real ones!
Measures approximately 1.0 cm (7/16 inch) in diameter.
Note the design of the crown may vary.
This is the individual pastry version, a smaller sized galette for one!
Price is for one galette.
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 (and hopefully avoids a broken tooth) is crowned the King or Queen and wins the right to wear the crown that accompanies each galette.
