Chef chocolatier Johan Giacchetti presents a limited-edition Easter collection, including an exceptional egg, carved from a huge raw cocoa bean, made of ntense Venezuelan dark chocolate, and chocolate arabesques from Madagascar, with almond pralines and toasted hazelnuts. And, to mark the centennial, a surprise slips into the large format dark chocolate version: a “100 years of Le Bristol Paris” keychain – an homage to the legendary keys of the Palace. There are also chocolate chickens in intense dark or milky versions. Rock Eggs, with crunchy sprinkles, play on dark chocolate textures, light or blonde.

The creations in this collection illustrate the art of suspended time with elegant lines and exceptional flavors.

Pierre Hermé
He’s the genius nicknamed the “Picasso of Pastry” by Vogue magazine, heir to four generations of Alsatian bakers and pastry chefs, adored in France, Japan, Asia and the Middle East, bringing taste and modernity to everything he touches. Which is your favorite macaron? PH’s original approach to the pastry profession led him to revolutionize the most established traditions. His work and audacity make him an essential name in French gastronomy. The Maison de Haute Pâtisserie, founded by Pierre Hermé in 1997, opened its first boutique in Tokyo in 1998, followed in 2001 by the Parisian pastry shop on rue Bonaparte, in the heart of Saint-Germain.
It’s difficult to choose between the so-called “Be Different” created with artist Patrick Rogerau or “Pris au Jeu” where PH suggests the family games of checkers, chess, dominoes etc.
Available at 72 rue Bonaparte and other branches throughout the city.

Le Delano Café
This year, Pastry Sous Chef Enzo Ohayon, along with Chef Paolo Minelli, take inspiration from the house’s architectural gem: the iconic 18th-century staircase and delicate mouldings. For Parisians at heart or just for a day/night seeking a convivial moment with family or friends, the hotel is offering an epicurean Easter brunch.
The staircase’s graceful curves and sculpted details are reinterpreted in chocolate! To enhance this creation, the hotel chose to include Lavazza with its exceptional 1895 Lavazza Petal Storm coffee, 100% Arabica beans from Guatemala. The eggs’ dark chocolate shell has a delicate center: caramel infused with floral and roasted notes of coffee, balanced with the sweetness of hazelnut, each bite reveals a new aromatic dimension. And, for even more indulgence, the egg interior reveals small caramel and puffed rice chocolates, an explosion of flavors and textures that perfectly complement this super sensory experience.
DETAILS
Available exclusively at Maison Delano Paris.
