The Christmas yule logs from le Boulanger de la Tour

Flavors from the past and present, the yule logs from le Boulanger de la Tour herald a festive season full of indulgence and sweetness. Yannick Franques, Chef of La Tour d’Argent and Meilleur Ouvrier de France, and Mourad Timsih, Executive Pastry Chef of the Tour, have joined forces to create delicacies with a unique balance and timeless flavors. These masterpieces are designed to evoke fond memories while crafting new ones during the 2024 celebrations.

The Black Forest Yule Log:
An ode to pastry-making tradition, this yule log reimagines all the hallmarks of this iconic dessert. With a delicate layering of chocolate sponge cake, cherry compote, Amarena cherries, and Madagascar vanilla chantilly cream, it is topped with La Tour d’Argent’s signature 72% dark chocolate mousse. The robust chocolate notes intertwine gracefully with the roundness and acidity of the cherries, creating a harmonious blend of flavors and textures.

The Chestnut and Blackcurrant Yule Log:
This creation celebrates the comforting harmony of chestnut and blackcurrant. Featuring a soft vanilla sponge, a hazelnut praline crisp with a hint of fleur de sel, a generous blackcurrant compote, and a crunchy yet airy meringue, the log is crowned with chestnut vermicelli. It perfectly embodies the Tour d’Argent spirit: a nostalgic taste of the past, masterfully reimagined with modern techniques and a minimalist contemporary aesthetic.
