Praluline

You might be wondering what on earth a Praluline is. I was too when I first heard about it. I was on a trip to Paris when I came across them in a bakery called Pralus. It’s right in the centre of Paris, not far from the Pompidou Centre (which is great for modern art, btw) so you could easily come across it when exploring the city.

The Praluline is a sweet bread which has candied nuts inside of it. I don’t know how you’re supposed to eat it but we just ate it on its own and it was delicious. I guess a piece of Praluline and a strong coffee would be perfect together because if you were to have it with a hot chocolate you’d get a sugar overdose!

This delicious bread comes in two sizes, very big and even bigger. The smaller size lasted us a couple of days and is well worth trying if you happen to stumble upon the Pralus bakery on a trip to Paris.

So I know this site is about cheap and healthy food and the Praluline and trips to Paris don’t exactly fall into those categories. But it’s nice to spoil yourself now and then and I believe that if you are going to spoil yourself you should do it with quality food using quality ingredients not junk food full of additives and preservatives. Quality over quantity is my motto!
