Pierre Hermé's 2020 Christmas cake collection: a microcosm woven with mysterious celestial bodies

Oct 29, 2020
PIERRE HERMÉ PARIS is introducing Christmas cakes again this year.


This year, they are offering a romantic bouche that combines chalk artist Philippe Bauderoc's "Féries Célestes (Heavenly Lands)" with Pierre Hermé's unique creations. Check out these six special patisseries that will beautifully decorate your Christmas Eve.


01. Bushe Plaisir Intense

"Buche Plaisir Intense" (6,210 yen including tax)
Size: 17cm long x 9cm wide x 8cm high
[Amande Biscuit, Praline Feuillete with Cocoa Pieces, Ganache Chocolat Noir, Black Chocolat Noir, Chantilly Chocolat Noir]

"Buche Plaisir Intense" is a bold cake that makes the most of chocolate. As you savor the diverse textures, including soft biscuit dough, crunchy praline, crispy chocolate flakes, melty ganache, and fluffy crème Chantilly, the impressive chocolate aroma gradually rises, allowing you to enjoy an endless, intense flavor.


02. Etoile Ispahan

"Etoile Ispahan" (¥5,940, tax included) - Exclusive to Directly Managed Boutiques
Size: 18cm W x 6cm H
[Rose-flavored pound cake, rose-flavored cream, lychee-flavored raspberry compote, rose macaron]

"Etoile Ispahan" is an entremet shaped like a seven-pointed star. The seven-pointed star, with its strong symbolism, is said to also allude to the fleeting bond between the disappearing year and the emerging year. Ispahan, Pierre Hermé's signature flavor, soars into the blue sky, creating a festive atmosphere.


03. Flocon Infiniment Vanille

"Flocon Infiniment Vanille" (¥5,940, tax included) Exclusive to Directly Managed Boutiques
Size: Diameter 14cm x Height 10cm
[Sable Breton, vanilla ganache, vanilla mascarpone cream, vanilla biscuit, beurre sucrée]

This is the sweet vanilla cake for adults, "Flocon Infiniment Vanille." Its innocent appearance will get you in the Christmas spirit.


04. Elena

"Elena" (¥4,320 including tax)
Size: Diameter 12cm x Height 4.5cm
[Pistachio sablé, biscuit, ricotta cream with fruit confit, pistachio-flavored mascarpone cream, pistachio rocher, pistachios, sablé breton]

For those who love pistachio sweets, we also recommend "Elena." This cake is inspired by the Sicilian cake "Cassata," and was introduced in Japan in 2019 as a new item, becoming extremely popular. For this year's Christmas, it has been redesigned as a "Christmas version" decorated with seven-pointed star chocolates. It is a small, luxurious 12cm size perfect for two people to enjoy.
