Neùlo: the divine “flangipane” is born

The Flangipanes Nèulo, ©Salome Rateau
With its crispy puff pastry, a generous layer of frangipane and the famous flan mixture that makes Néulo so successful, the "simple flangipane" is the perfect combination of traditional flan and galette. Exit the double puff pastry! Instead, let yourself be carried away by the creaminess and delicacy of vanilla.
The “tonka flangipane” is flavored with chocolate and tonka, a bean that brings intensity and freshness with hints of cinnamon and cut hay.
As for the “apple caramel flangipane”, it is a sort of flan tatin superbly pimped with almond cream.
Conclusion? There is something here to satisfy fans of flan, galette and even tatin recipes. With the or (it's your choice, the French Academy has not yet ruled on the subject) flangipane, the galette des rois has entered the 21st century.
