As you can imagine, this was enough to get the internet users reacting. A log that is far from unanimous As every year, as the holidays approach, all the pastry chefs are in a race to create the most original and surprising Christmas log. And Cédric Grolet is no exception to the rule. But his creation for the 2023 edition seems to divide opinions. On the Le Bonbon website, you can find a photo of the log in question. It is shaped like a snowman, with three mismatched spheres stacked on top of each other. The top sphere, representing the head, seems to be melting, with chocolate dripping down and creating a puddle at the bottom, giving it a rather peculiar appearance. Of course, social media users didn't miss the opportunity to react to this somewhat unusual dessert. Some found it playful and original, appreciating the creativity of the pastry chef. Others, on the other hand, expressed their astonishment and even some skepticism about its taste. In any case, Cédric Grolet always manages to create a buzz with his pastries. Love it or hate it, you can't deny that his creations never go unnoticed.

Don't forget to bring your own hot chocolate to complete the experience! of the capital offer their new creation for Christmas, generally in the form of a more or less original log. A favorite of tourists visiting Paris, Cédric Grolet doesn't escape the rule and this time he has proposed an original creation in the shape of a snowman, composed of coconut marshmallow, coconut ganache, fresh mango cubes, coconut dacquoise, coconut crisp.

On paper, the proposal seems rather appetizing and successful, but in photos, let's say that the log did not have the expected effect... Many users of platform X mocked the creation of the pastry chef, judging it "too childish", stating that he "didn't make any effort" or that he "messed up a tutorial he saw on YouTube". ». Even an internet user goes so far as to describe the bakery as a "hundred-dollar turd." ». In short, you get the idea.

The most hilarious tweet goes to Nora Bouazzouni, a culinary journalist, who came up with a funny comment: " I'm dying of laughter. It's such a level of scam that we need to invent a new word." This "scam" refers to the price of the thing: 95€. Yes, it's a bit expensive for a Christmas log, even though, in reality, we have seen much worse in the world of luxury Parisian pastries.
