English term

gelee royale

Non-PRO English to French Other Linguistics
I saw this word in a book about the Oltenian dialect of Rumanian written in French. It is a translation of the Rumanian word laptis,or (luhp-tee-shor) from lapte "milk". However, I can't find the equivalent French word 'gelee royale' in any of the dictionaries I've looked at. Any translation help is greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,
Brian Costello

So, actually, it is already in French in your text - only the accent is missing.
