Huit à la frangipane
Huit frangipane is a traditional French pastry that is often consumed during the holiday season, especially on Epiphany. It is made of two layers of puff pastry and a cream filling made from almonds. The almond cream is prepared with butter, sugar, almond powder, and eggs. The pastry is usually decorated with diamond-shaped patterns and glazed with egg before being baked in the oven. Traditionally, a bean is hidden inside the pastry and the person who finds it becomes the king or queen of the day. It is a delicious dessert that is highly enjoyed by the French.
