« She is so beautiful, you’d almost hesitate to cut her… » If you want to hear this phrase at your table on Christmas Eve, then you’re in the right place. Le Bonbon is unveiling its 2024 selection of Christmas log cakes available in Paris, tried and approved!


Jeffrey Cagnes

This year, the pastry chef takes us on a delightful journey to Italy with a signature yule log that eerily resembles the Tower of Pisa. On the menu: a sponge cake and creamy chocolate, delicately infused caramel with coffee, a crunchy coffee layer, and an ultra-airy mascarpone mousse with Madagascar vanilla.

Price: €95 for 8 people
Available by order only from December 15


Ginko

Once again, the Franco-Japanese bakery takes us on a delightful journey with creations that are as original as they are tasty. Rice pudding, a creamy mousse with genmaicha and seaweed jelly, or pear, honey, and saffron, the balance is always subtle, the textures extremely satisfying, and the appearance perfect. We shouldn't say it, but these are our little favorites of the year!

Ladurée

The temple of macarons hasn’t lost its way, and this year it brings us a log shaped like… macarons. It's a creation as light as it is enchanting, combining vanilla and almond in a festival of textures. Crispy, soft, mousse-like, crunchy — it has everything to send our taste buds to heaven in just one bite.

Price: €78 for 6 people
Available for click and collect or delivery


Amorino

This year, the temple of Italian ice cream in Paris is treating us to a beautiful frozen log shaped like a Christmas tree, inspired by the Cremino, a traditional dessert from Italy. Vanilla gelato from Bourbon to Madagascar and Mawardi pistachio gelato combine with a caramel insert and a dark chocolate crunch for a dessert that is as fresh as it is indulgent.

Price: €45 for 8 people
Available at Amorino stores


Lenôtre

This is by far the most refined and impressive creation in this selection. Behind a magical chocolate train and marshmallow lies an amazing cocoa log that’s all about delicateness. Chocolate biscuit, hazelnut praline, chocolate cream, and crunchy hazelnut come together to create an ensemble with perfect balance. Yes, it's pricey, but it serves way more portions than it seems.

Le Burgundy Paris

Le Burgundy teams up with Léandre Vivier to in its 2025 festive creations. The result: a log that's as delicate as it is visually stunning, combining chocolate, crunchy macadamia, soft biscuit, airy Tahitian vanilla mousse, and an amazing vanilla milk jam.

Price: €105 for 6-8 people
Available for click and collect starting December 17, 2025


Cédric Grolet x Le Meurice

After the scandal surrounding his yule logs two years ago, Cédric Grolet brings us an adorable knitted bear this year for Le Meurice. Although quite classic in flavors (chocolate and vanilla), the piece demonstrates immense skill from the pastry chef, with both textures and flavor balance.

Price: €75 for 6 people
Available for order until December 31, 2025


Pierre Hermé

With Athéna, the former best pastry chef in the world offers us a powerful yule log, as stylish as it is incisive. In a velvety wave, dark chocolate Pure Origin Belize and pistachio blend together for a fascinating dialogue that enchants the taste buds. However, be careful, it's a character-driven yule log, reserved for bold palates.

Price: €130 for 12 people
Available by order only from December 11 to 31, 2025


La Felicita

No, it’s not a huge wheel of parmesan, but a delicious log. At La Felicita, this Christmas will be cheesy, but only in a trompe-l'œil style, as the inside of the pastry is filled with flavors of pecans, vanilla, white chocolate and intense praline. A perfect illusion that combines Italian tradition with festive spirit.

Price: €44 for 6 to 8 people
Available all month long in December


Printemps Haussmann

This year, in partnership with chef Bryan Esposito, Printemps Haussmann invites us to cross the Atlantic and head to the Big Apple. In a stunning log shaped like a Candy Cane, the pastry chef combines classic New York : cookie dough biscuit, lime cheesecake, and cranberry jelly.

Claire Heitzler

Staying on the same theme, chef Claire Heitzler has also chosen a dessert in the shape of a candy cane. But she, on her side, opts for all chocolate. Between sweetness and intensity, the log offers a soft chocolate biscuit, crispy praline with cocoa beans, an intense dark cream, and milk chocolate mousse.

Price: 72€ for 8 people

The Peninsula Paris

This year, The Peninsula celebrates the poetry of winter and the magic of December with its Yule log Joyau des Pins, inspired (just like its name suggests) by the pine cones found in nature. Woody, milky, and honeyed notes blend together gently for a true forest stroll.

Price: €105 for 8 people
Available by reservation from December 17 to December 31, 2025


Kimpton St Honoré

The Kimpton St Honoré has decided to embrace the surprisingly mild temperatures for the season by offering us a log cake shaped like... an ice cream cone! Inside, a waffle cone, madeleine cookie, blackberry/raspberry compote, and vanilla cream with black tea create a delightful and flavorful mix.

Fauchon

This year, Fauchon takes us to... Paradise! Their pink-hued log, adorned with little angels, offers a lovely traditional blend of vanilla, caramel, and chocolate, which always leaves a delightful impression.

Café de la Paix x Repetto
