Fèves are small figurines traditionally hidden inside galettes, the French cakes served during the Epiphany celebration. This custom, which dates back to the 19th century, involves each galette containing a fève, with the person who finds it being crowned king or queen for the day. These figurines are often made of porcelain and can represent a wide range of themes, from historical figures to popular culture. The practice adds an element of surprise and fun to the celebration, making each galette not just a dessert but also a source of excitement and tradition.
