Cheval Blanc Paris Presents ‘Easter Bloom’ by Maxime Frederic
Maxime Fre’de’ric, Pastry Chef of Cheval Blanc Paris, and his teams have dreamed up a beautifully bucolic Easter creation. To celebrate the arrival of spring, they extend an invitation to stroll through a chocolate garden where the rose reigns supreme.
Slow down. Lean in. Inhale its scent. Observe. Marvel. A rose is blooming. The poetic rose presents silky petals and a corolla in 75 per cent dark chocolate made in the atelier of the chocolatier Nicolas Berger. These must be plucked delicately, with just the fingertips, to discover what lies at its tender heart: a chocolate egg filled with chocolate-coated, caramelised hazelnuts from Maxime Fre’de’ric’s family farm, Le Secret de Nos Vergers, in Normandy. The Queen of her realm, the rose reigns in majesty over a delicate bar of chocolate garnished with pistachios, candied raspberry, and rose jam.
An exceptional piece recalling a floral composition, made specially to grace gourmet tables, it serves 6-8 people and is priced at EUR180. Available by pre-order on www.cadeau-paris.chevalblanc.com Easter creation for pick up from April 6-9, 2023 at Cheval Blanc Paris.
Butterfly Effect: Le Bristol Paris celebrates springtime with custom Easter Egg and decor
The Palace hotel shines the spotlight on its in-house chocolate factory with a new chocolate Easter Egg by Chef chocolatier Johan Giacchetti, echoed by a custom art installation in the lobby.
This Easter season, the team is introducing a fresh, nature-inspired take on the annual Easter egg with their ‘Butterfly Effect’ creation. Hand-crafted out of dark chocolate from Madagascar the large egg stands erect on a chocolate foundation and is filled with a praline of crushed almonds, hazelnut morsels, and vanilla. In a design influenced by Chef Johan Giacchetti’s love for springtime nature walks, the egg is adorned by a delicate flourish of butterflies coloured in deep red lining the side as if to have landed there temporarily before fluttering away again.
To echo the chocolaterie’s elegant Easter egg creation, Le Bristol Paris’ lobby is decorated for springtime with a breathtaking installation of 20,000 paper butterflies created in France by Studio Bjorg in collaboration with renowned paper artist Mathilde Nivet.
The installation decorates the lobby’s central table, visible immediately upon entry through the hotel’s revolving doors. ‘Butterfly Effect’ chocolate Easter egg will be available at L’Epicerie des Ateliers du Bristol from March 22 to April 10, 2023 and is EUR90.
