In just a few days’ time, young and old alike will be enjoying the emblematic Yule log at the end of the Christmas meal. The editors have selected five top-of-the-range and original sweets to enjoy over the festive season.
The jewel dessert at the Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme
Chef Naraé Kim of the Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme, the Palace in the second arrondissement of Paris, has created an attractive combination of jewellery and pastry. With its design inspired by a brooch of precious stones, this log comes in two versions: one with a chocolate mousse and vanilla ganache and the other with a herb mousse. These desserts are also enhanced by black fruit, speculoos and a blueberry and blue flower glaze.
The dog on its cushion at Lutetia
This log is surely one of the most original of the 2023 season. Shar-Pei Lulu, the mascot of the Lutetia Palace in Paris’s sixth arrondissement, has been given pride of place by chef Nicolas Guercio. The little ball of fur, all chocolate of course, is revealed asleep on her pillow, which is none other than the famous Yule log. This trompe l’oeil pillow is adorned with a chocolate biscuit, a lime crisp, a vanilla mousse and a passion fruit cream. These exotic flavours are ideal for the end of a meal.
