Looking for the best and most beautiful galettes des Rois this Epiphany 2026? We'll take you on a tour of the one created by Jordan Talbot, Head Pastry Chef at La Réserve Paris.
One of Paris's finest galettes des Rois, La Réserve Paris surprises us with a creation that magnificently extends the magic of the festive season. In the 8th arrondissement, the Parisian palace unveils Fleur de Noisette, a galette des Rois imagined by Jordan Talbot forEpiphany 2026. This gourmet nugget pays homage to Brittany, the homeland the pastry chef shares with Jérôme Banctel, the palace's three-starred chef.
Jordan Talbot slips in a nod to Breton crêpes dentelles, which seem to bloom like a flower in a setting crowned with caramelized hazelnut slivers. This poetic approach transforms the traditional galette into a veritable work of pastry art, worthy of this confidential palace on Avenue Gabriel.
Beneath this crisp, golden fan lies a fresh butter puff pastry enveloping a delicately flavored frangipane cream. The trio of hazelnut, Valencia almond and toasted vanilla create a subtle harmony, enriched by an intense heart of Piedmont hazelnut. This composition promises moments of indulgence and sharing that will appeal to young and old alike.
La Réserve Paris adds an exceptional touch with its ceramic bean, haloed by the anniversary seal celebrating the palace's ten years of elegance. Five of these exceptional beans are emblazoned with the emblematic red of the confidential case's door. The lucky gourmets who discover them will be offered a signature hot chocolate for two, to be enjoyed in the cosy atmosphere of the Bibliothèque.
This generous Fleur de Noisette rounds off a year of celebrations, marking the end of La Réserve Paris's 10th anniversary. It is perfectly in keeping with the DNA of this Haussmann-style establishment designed by Jacques Garcia, which has been a landmark of Parisian life since the early 19th century.
Fleur de Noisette is available from January 4 to 11, 2026 at a takeaway price of 68 euros for 6 to 8 slices. Gourmets can also enjoy it by the slice at La Pagode de Cos. To order, simply contact La Réserve Paris on 01 58 36 60 60 or visit lareserve-paris.com. The palace is located at 42 avenue Gabriel in the 8th arrondissement, discreetly set back from the Champs-Élysées.
This galette des Rois seduces us with its poetic approach and authentic flavors that pay tribute to Breton traditions. We love the incomparable crispness of the galette's distinctive puff pastry and the softness of the frangipane, which smells of Piedmont hazelnuts. A great way to start 2026 with a creation that combines traditional know-how and Parisian elegance.
Please note that it's been over 4 years since our last visit, so the place and experience may have changed.
