Following a highly successful venture with Christian Louboutin, the luxury Parisian patisserie, Ladurée, has joined forces with Italian fashion house Marni. This time the two brands have produced a limited edition gift box of chocolate macaroons together. The box has been decorated with flowers and polka dots, two signature symbols of the Marni brand, and particular favorites of owner, Consuleo Castiglioni. They are also offering specially customized versions of the gift set with a selection of their other delicious flavours which include Orange Blosson, Pistachio and Licorice.
Some might argue that the gold sheets which wrap the macaroons individually is a flamboyant extravagance too far, but we think this designer collaboration will make the perfect Christmas gift for the chic, the brand conscious, and of course, the chocolate lover.
Available from December 1st 2009 in Ladurée shops in Paris, London, Dublin, Tokyo and Switzerland.
