Soon the Epiphany crowned by its famous cake!

And to celebrate this event, nothing like a beautiful homemade galette des rois.

This year, it will be frangipane and chocolate.

My children love these moments when, finally, they will choose their king and their queen.

So, if I don't have the bean this year, I hope to be the queen of the kitchen with my tasty pancake recipe.
