Galette des rois

The galette des rois is a puff pastry filled with frangipane, a blend of almond cream and pastry cream, in which a small charm, the fève, is hidden. Eaten in France for Epiphany in early January, it crowns whoever finds the charm in their slice king or queen for the day. The brioche version of the south, the gâteau des rois, is its traditional southern variant.
