PIERRE HERME PARIS will release this year's Valentine's Day products on January 21st.

The new "Coeur Plaisir Sucre" (3,456 yen) is a heart-shaped chocolate cake perfect for Valentine's Day. It features a complex texture and refreshing flavor, combining the richness of classic milk chocolate with the crunch of hazelnuts. It will be sold exclusively at the directly managed boutique.

The classic "Bonbon Chocolat" now comes in two new varieties: "Paineiras," which features a ganache made from pure chocolate from Paineiras Farm in Brazil coated with chocolat noir, and "Dolcezza," which features a ganache coated with chocolat noir and honey from the Maquis region of Corsica. These popular flavors are presented in a classic, heavy-duty box. A box of 5 varieties (5 pieces) costs 2,160 yen, a box of 8 varieties (8 pieces) costs 3,240 yen, and a box of 11 varieties (14 pieces) costs 5,400 yen.

New flavors will also be available for "Galle," the round, pebble-like chocolate. The raspberry-flavored "Chloe" will be sold exclusively at the Isetan Shinjuku store's "Salon du Chocolat 2015." The vanilla-flavored "Infiniment Vanille" will be sold exclusively at the Seibu Ikebukuro store, and the caramel-flavored "Infiniment Caramel" with fleur de sel will be sold exclusively at the Aoyama boutique. Each will cost 2,376 yen.
