La Fête des Rois, or King’s Day, is an anticipated holiday and tradition in France that takes place 12 days after Christmas. To celebrate, La Galette des Rois or a King’s Cake, is baked in many households and sold throughout the month of January in bakeries or supermarkets all over France to celebrate La Fête des Rois or King’s Day. Depending on the region of France, there are a few galette variations, some with fruits, nuts, or no filling, but my ultimate favorite galette is the galette filled with almond paste (not to be confused with the Frangipane filling, which is half crème d’amande and halfcrème pâtissière.) Depending on how rich you want your galette, you can adapt the recipe. Check out La Galette des Rois – 3 Easy Recipes.
Bonne Fête des Rois!
