Brioche Royale

Brioche royale looks really festive and appetizing, despite the simple decor. The soft texture of the dough is perfectly complemented by aromatic candied fruits, marzipan and crispy almond crust on the top.


Frasier Iconique

This version of the traditional Fraisier is made of a light Genoise sponge and light mascarpone cream. Wild strawberry compote will bring a rich berry flavor, and the cake will be adorned with a decorative strip of chocolate, decorative cream with mascarpone and fresh strawberries.

Piña Сolada Bûche

This elegant and neat bûche with a bright and balanced taste of the Piña Colada cocktail by Nicolas Boussin will become a luxurious attraction of the festive table. It consists of a juicy almond sponge, compote of pineapple, poached with ginger and lime, exotic fruit cream with an extraordinary smooth and silky texture, and light coconut mousse.


Pavlova Cake

A modern and sophisticated version of the world famous dessert by Nicolas Boussin will delight you with its light taste and elegant look. In addition to Chantilly cream, the chef will prepare a lychee cream that has a very delicate and smooth texture. A raspberry and blueberry compote with an intense taste and bright color serve as a bright berry accent of the dessert.


Floraison Choux Pastry

Floraison tea-cake has a beautiful rounded flower shape with clearly defined petals. All textures are visible: choux pastry  dough with a crispy coating of nuts and pearl sugar, cream and praline. The classic choux pastry dough in this recipe is piped in a special way using a shortcrust pastry base. This will make the tea-cake more stable and easier to work with.


Dijon Cake

The cake consists of thin layers of various textures that complement each other and form a harmonious pastry. Rhythmic stripes on the sponge surface follow the cut pattern of the cake. Natural colors attract attention and evoke associations with the bright taste of Dijon black currant.


Tiramisu Cake

You will be impressed by the look and rich classic flavor of a modern and elegant cake-shaped version of Tiramisu by Nicolas Boussin. The silky and delicate mascarpone cream will be complemented by the bright taste of soft coffee caramel and the contrasting texture of the shortbread crust - perfectly balanced for the cake base.


Tatin Buche

The first thing that catches the eye in this dessert is its cylindrical shape and its stunning surface of transparent, caramelized apples. Joconde sponge and mascarpone cream decorate the center of the pastry and stunningly complement the taste of caramelized apples.


Old fashioned King`s Brioche

The dessert that I will make today is traditionally prepared in France for the feast day of the Epiphany. In some regions of France (mainly in the south), it is called "the King’s Crown" because it has a ring shape. As a basis, I take the classic recipe for brioche dough with the addition of orange blossom and candied fruits and complement it with marzipan and candied orange and lemon.
