Maison Danel

While you can’t outsource your entire Christmas Dinner at this pâtisserie, you can outsource the most important parts, namely the Buche de Nöel, a Yule "log" filled with layers of chocolate, hazelnut, and pear ($75, serves eight to ten people). Go all out and add on a Christmas duck pithivier (a layered puff pastry filled with duck breast, duck liver, pork farce, and warm spices) in the petit ($85, serves two to three, or $105, serves four to six), and a holiday pâté bundle ($65, serves four) that’s probably supposed to be a hostess gift, but looks too delicious to give away.
How to order: Place your order by December 13 for pickup on December 23 or 24.
