The Easter Collection 2025 by Chef Johan Giacchetti at Le Bristol Paris

At Le Bristol Paris, pleasure is an art, and excellence is a tradition that spans centuries. To celebrate its 100th anniversary, the Palace is unveiling an Easter collection as refined as it is delicate, crafted by its Head Chocolatier, Johan Giacchetti.

Sculpted from grand cru cocoa, Le Bristol Paris’ signature Easter egg pays homage to the artistry that permeates the soul of the Palace. Its finely chiseled design, an extraordinary feat of craftsmanship, echoes the wrought iron of the historic elevator and the gilded bronze accents of Louis XV commodes. Mahogany is transformed into intense Venezuelan dark chocolate, while acanthus leaves entwine in delicate arabesques of Madagascan chocolate—a technical mastery reserved for the most exceptional maisons.

Beneath its elegant shell, available in 70% dark, milk, or white chocolate, lies a delectable treasure: delicately caramelized chocolate fish, almond and hazelnut pralines… And to mark this centenary, a special surprise is hidden inside the large dark chocolate edition—a Le Bristol Paris 100th anniversary keychain, a tribute to the Palace’s legendary keys. Here, the keys are not merely symbolic; they are real, imbued with the history and authenticity of the place.

“Rocks & Reflections” – A Signature Easter Egg Creation by Tarek Ahamada at Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc

Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc, an Oetker Collection Masterpiece Hotel, will reopen on Friday, April 18th, celebrating Easter weekend with indulgent delights and memorable moments. Tarek Ahamada, the legendary palace’s esteemed Pastry Chef, has channelled his talent into a sensational chocolate Easter egg creation to mark the season’s opening.

Inspired by the serenity and beauty of the property, Tarek was especially influenced by the natural elements that define the French Riviera’s unique allure to create his chocolate masterpiece. Measuring 20 cm in length and 15 cm in width, the exclusive Easter egg translates the essence of Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc through artistry and intricate detailing that capture hints of the breathtaking nature surrounding the hotel.

One side of the delicate egg is beautifully sculpted to evoke the rugged coastal cliffs and the hotel’s iconic infinity pool, carved into the rock — a nod to the property’s unmatched natural architecture. The opposite side captures the magic of the Mediterranean, featuring patterns that illustrate the water’s gentle movement, echoing the indescribable feeling of this location where land meets the sea.

Through this special Easter creation, Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc pairs haute cuisine with true artistry to celebrate the one-of-a-kind beauty of the French Riviera.
