La Magie de Pâques (The Magic of Easter)
Étienne Leroy, the House’s head pastry chef, is inspired by the theme of magic by reproducing the magician’s most famous trick, the magic hat!
From this imposing top hat molded in dark chocolate, a magnificent egg-shaped birdcage springs up in a flight of white chocolate playing cards, whose milk chocolate doors are chiseled like wrought iron. As artistic and delicate as the paper cut-out birds from which they are inspired, the doves that escape are made of white chocolate and bring the final touch of elegance to this chocolate sculpture.
Entirely assembled by hand, this limited edition gourmet work of art is composed of more than 1.5 kg of the House’s signature 36% milk and 70% dark cocoa chocolates and white chocolate.
