Labo la Pépite

Labo la Pépite has decided this year to honor Provençal traditions, especially through its chestnut cream and Corsican clementine Yule log, inspired by the Provençal festival of Cachio Fio which involved burning a wooden log with a laurel branch to bring Prosperity. But let's admit it, our hearts are drawn to the Signature Yule Log which is naturally sweet, meaning that its different sweet flavors come from the ingredients that make it up.Imagine a colorful and joyful picture full of smiles and happiness.
