The Pierre Hermé Paris Boutique at The Ritz-Carlton Kyoto (located on the banks of the Kamogawa Nijo Bridge in Nakagyo Ward, Kyoto City) will begin taking reservations for Christmas cakes from November 1, 2022.
Pierre Hermé Paris offers sweets filled with the inspiration of Pierre Hermé, known as the "Picasso of the pastry world." For Christmas 2022, the theme is "The World's Most Beautiful City of Paris," and original drawings by French artist Octave Marsal are displayed on sweets and small boxes. The Ritz-Carlton Kyoto, the only hotel in western Japan with a Pierre Hermé Paris pastry chef on-site, will offer a total of three types of Christmas cakes, including one exclusive to the hotel, as well as stollen.
"Buche Bayadère"
"Buche Bayadère" 6,750 yen (tax included) *Limited to 70 units
"Buche Bayadère," available exclusively at The Ritz-Carlton Kyoto this year, is a light and airy dessert in which the flavors of passion fruit, strawberry, and rhubarb hidden within lime-flavored white chocolate mousse are enhanced by the refreshing aroma of lime.
"Buche Ispahan"
"Buche Ispahan" 6,750 yen (tax included) *Limited to 70 units
Pierre Hermé Paris's masterpiece, "Ispahan," is now available in the shape of a classic Christmas cake, a bûche (firewood or tree stump). Rose petals and light cream complement the vibrant flavor of lychee, while the crisp, sweet and sour raspberries add a stylish accent. Furthermore, enjoy the exquisite harmony created by the macaron dough, which has both a crispy texture and a soft mouthfeel.
Stollen
Stollen 3,780 yen (tax included)
The Ritz-Carlton, Kyoto will also be selling Pierre Hermé Paris stollen. Stollen is a traditional German brioche bread filled with dried fruits and spices such as vanilla, cardamom, lemon zest, and raisins.

In addition, Etoile Infiniment Vanille (6,480 yen, limited to 30 units) will also be available for purchase.
