Cédric Grolet and François Deshayes offer a deliciously regressive Christmas at Le Meurice
As the festive season approaches, Le Meurice invites you to take a gourmet trip back to childhood grâce à la créativité de Cédric Grolet, chef pâtissier de renommée internationale, et de son fidèle collaborateur, François Deshayes. Renowned for his sculptural creations and meticulous attention to detail, Cédric Grolet has been delighting sweet-lovers for years, having been voted “World’s Best Pastry Chef” and recognized for his desserts that combine precision, inventiveness and emotion. At Le Meurice, each log becomes a true work of art, a delicate and festive experience that delights all the senses.
Bonhomme Pain d’Épices: textures and delicacies
Le Bonhomme Pain d’Épices is a perfect illustration of the art of regressive pastry-making. The chefs have worked the gingerbread into several complementary textures: a praline crunch, a soft cookie and a cream topped with vanilla caramel make up the central insert. Gingerbread mousse envelops the whole, outlining the figure of the bonhomme with remarkable precision. The delicately hand-crafted smile adds a touch of whimsy and charm, inviting young and old to rediscover the magic of Christmas with every bite. This dessert elegantly combines aesthetics, flavors and emotion, the signature style of Cédric Grolet.
Le Nounours: chocolate and vanilla in perfect harmony
Le Nounours, another flagship creation, plays on the complementarity of chocolate and vanilla, a timeless, gourmet alliance. The insert is composed of a chocolate praline crunch, a soft cocoa cookie, a chocolate-vanilla cream and a cocoa gel for lightness and freshness. The chocolate mousse envelops the whole and gives the Teddy its perfect shape, while the white scarf in vanilla ganache adds an elegant, refined note. Every detail of this dessert reflects Grolet’s technical rigor and pastry poetry, true to his international reputation.
