Paul is celebrating his 130th birthday this year! The history of these bakeries began five generations ago in the North of France. The brand is now present in 50 countries with more than 750 shops. With so many addresses, Paul prepares the end-of-year celebrations to offer his customers breads, logs, pancakes kings and other delicacies. His Christmas 2019 will be under the sign of tradition.

I had a glimpse of what the brand was preparing for the occasion. Appointment in its shops from December 17 to January 2 to enjoy, or from December 4 for the Epiphany.



Bakeries Paul salted side
For the end of the year, Paul concocts festive salty dishes: surprise breads (I love it!), Etc.



Bread for the holidays
Paul plans to offer a variety of breads for the holidays, so that each dish can be accompanied, if desired, with the bread that goes best with him. On the menu: nut breads, fruit croque (combining apricots, grapes and hazelnuts), figs or rye with honey and five fruits.



The logs and Christmas desserts 2019 Paul bakeries
You know me, I am always attracted to chocolate. I have tasted the logs with the eyes so can only describe their composition.

Visually, impossible to resist the chocolate praline crown (6 people, € 29.50), consisting of a crunchy praline, a sponge cake, a mousse 70% cocoa, all coated with a black mirror glaze chocolate. The beautiful decor is chocolate pinecones and milk chocolate dark chocolate holly leaves.



Paul has also designed five logs for 4 or 8 people:

the raspberry-blackcurrant log consists of a dacquoise with almonds, a raspberry mousse, a cassis mousse and blackcurrant marbles (4 people, € 19.50)


the exotic log consists of a dacquoise with almonds, a coconut mousse and a mango compote, passion pitaya (4 people, 19,50 €)
