A French King cake is traditionally made with almond filling, but to make it a bit different than usual try it with chocolate instead. A crispy puff pastry cake filled with almond paste and a soft chocolate hazelnut cream. This creates a wonderful taste combination.

Kougelhopf is a dry cake which originates from Alsace in France. It has a brown outside that is covered with icing sugar. The cake is often eaten together with coffee or tea, but can be served at breakfast as well. This is the traditional recipe of the cake with raisins, but other variations with almonds, or fruits can also be found.
This is one of the classic Alsatian Christmas cookies called sand bredele. They are named sand bredele because it feels like soft sand when you prepare the dough. It is common to change the taste by adding vanilla, rum, orange, citron, cinnamon or ginger, and you will find them in many different shapes as well.
With this sauce you can put a French touch to your hamburger, grilled meat or use it as a dip to the French fries. It is a wonderful opportunity to make it if you have some brie or Camembert cheese at home, depending on how much cheese you like the sauce to taste.
