To celebrate the Holiday Season and the 10th Anniversary of La Réserve Paris, Jordan Talbot unveils a Poetic Creation evocative of the Christmas Spirit. To mark this Precious Moment, the Parisian palace's Pastry Chef reveals "L'Astre d'Or," a Yule Log resembling a Stylized North Star.

For this New Gourmet Chapter, the Bûche de La Réserve Paris draws its Imagination from Nordic Winter Tales. It owes its Inspiration in Particular to Traditional Hand-Crafted Christmas Garlands.

The Design of "L'Astre d'Or," with Geometric Lines and a Coppery Sheen, also echoes the Belle Époque - a Tribute to the Heyday of the Avenue Gabriel Setting. The Velvet Red Palette and Sparkling Gilding make it a True Emblem, crowned with the Maison's Anniversary Seal.

With L'Astre d'Or, Jordan Talbot sublimates the Art of Indulgence with a Unique Play of Textures. The Dessert consists of a Crunchy Fleur de Sel, a Soft Biscuit, and a Caramel Infused with Sweet Spices (Vanilla, Timut Pepper, and Tonka Bean), in which a Creamy Rice Pudding insert and a Light Mousse with Three Vanillas (Madagascar, Tahiti, and Mexico) awaken the Taste Buds. A Harmony of Flavors, where each Bite recalls Childhood Memories.

When it's Time to taste, the Magic happens from the Moment you cut it. Hidden in the Top Flake, a Chocolate Pot hides Two Chocolate and Puffed Rice Praline and Salted Caramel Bars for an Unforgettable Sensory and Emotional Experience.

The Lucky Star of La Réserve Paris, an End-Of-Year Gift to share!
