Galette des Rois 2026 Maison Élysée: the chef of the Presidential Palace signs the creation in Paris

As Epiphany approaches, Paris is getting ready to share the Galette des Rois. For 2026, Maison Élysée presents a precise recipe, focusing on the finesse of the ingredients. Here, tradition is combined with confident gestures and clean flavors.

Maison Élysée, a 2026 creation designed for sharing

Reportedly, the creation is by the chef of the Presidential Palace. The puff pastry and almond cream have been designed to achieve a perfect balance. This Galette des Rois aims for an even texture, soft at the core and slightly crisp.

Maison Élysée – 2026 edition: raw almond frangipane, flavored with Martinique rum and Reunion Island vanilla. Price: 8€ for a slice and 40€ for a whole galette.

The choice of raw almonds brings a clean chewiness and a more straightforward taste. What’s more, the rum-vanilla flavor reflects our desire to showcase the terroirs of the French overseas territories. In short, a recipe that’s short, easy to read and easy to share with the family.

“A galette designed for sharing, simple and neat, true to French taste.”

Where to share it: formats and budgets

Le Moulin de la Croix Nivert – Galette de l’Élysée: 4, 6 or 10 portions, pure butter puff pastry and pastry cream-based frangipane. Price: 28 euros for 6 slices and 47 euros for 10 slices.

These formats make life easier in the home or office. So you can adapt your order to your table and your budget. When choosing your Galette des Rois, think about your guests’ appetites and the time of service.

Some share for dessert, others for a snack, so the format varies. On the other hand, a well-cooked puff pastry remains the key to the cup’s staying power. The Presidential Galette des Rois therefore lends itself well to service with a thin knife, without crushing the layers.

Tips for tasting at home

To restore the crispness, reheat for 8 to 10 minutes at 160°C. This keeps the frangipane supple and the puff pastry light. Serve with a dry cider or low-tannin tea.

Check for allergens before serving to younger children. Galette des Rois contains almonds, and the rum and vanilla flavors are present but discreet. So keep the fava bean out of the portion intended for the very young.

Tradition, ethics and transparency

The choice of identified ingredients tells a story of terroirs, overseas territories and workshops. From now on, this care is reflected in a Galette des Rois that links the territories. In this way, each bite highlights the raw material.

Prices(€8 per slice, €40 per piece) provide a clear reference point. What’s more, partner bakery formats – 4, 6 or 10 slices – simplify the organization of your meals. In short, everyone can fine-tune quantity and cost.

For smooth sharing, cut into regular portions and serve warm. Alternatively, keep chilled if serving ahead of time, then reheat briefly. As a result, the aromas of almond, Martinique rum and Reunion vanilla come through clearly, without heaviness.
