Christmas chocolates and yule logs 2019 by Christophe Michalak

Choice, originality and quality, this is what Christophe Michalak has concocted to feed us well for the Holidays 2019. Years go by and Christophe Michalak extends his range of creations. This year, 4 yule logs are available for your Christmas dinner!

First, we have the signature yule log called “Violon” [Violin]. Christophe Michalak pays tribute to French-American artist Arman known for cutting up violins, and sticking them back together or resoldering them with different and noble materials. This lovely signature yule log is made of runny pecan praline and creamy and strong dark chocolate mousse.

Then, Christophe Michalak unveils three pop yule logs:

Oriental pistachio yule log that is made of Joconde cake soaked in Oriental rose water, orange blossom and bitter almond punch, some pistachio praline, pistachio praline confit, light Oriental whipped cream and pistachio praline mousse.

Mango yulelog made of Joconde cake, exotic mango, passion fruit and guava cream, crispy coconut, exotic confit and mango mousse.

Milky chocolate-caramel yule log made of chocolate cake and two mousses, the first is a caramel mousse, the other one a milk chocolate mousse, some crunchy hazelnut mix and soft Dulce de Leche caramel.

Last but not least, for all those who like to help, Christophe Michalak has come up with a DIY yule log. A genuine log to finish at home and based on dark chocolate cake, Jivara-passion fruit whipped cream and some crispy pearls.

Of course, it’s not all since the chef also came up with delicious chocolates: two Santa Clauses filled with small treats (€45 for 300g, €12.50 for 70g – empty); a milk chocolate desert rose tree (€30) and a mendiant chocolate tree (€35).

And of course, let's not forget about the Advent Calendar to sweetly wait until Christmas day.

So, which one will you have?
