François Perret versions his emblematic Madeleine for Easter
Ana Rodríguez

La Madeleine, emblem of the Ritz Paris Le Comptoir, was created by its pastry chef François Perret, who imagined in the hotel’s Proust Room a French afternoon tea whose centerpiece would be a voluptuous and ethereal madeleine – a symbol of elegance – with a fondant heart .

For Easter, Perret presents the Madeleine with a double coated shell and available in three chocolate flavors -dark, milk, or white-, which hides numerous in the interior small chocolates made at the maison, some dark chocolate with a fleur de sel caramel heart, and others of milk chocolate with a crunchy almond praline heart.

Focusing on the three shell chocolates of the consumer’s choice, the dark one is a Panama 72% designed by Perret in close collaboration with the Chocolaterie de l’Opéra and for which the Ritz Paris has exclusivity; the milk chocolate is a Tannéa 43% made with cocoa beans grown in Madagascar and produced by the Chocolaterie de l’Opéra, and the white chocolate is a Diapasson 33%, also produced by the Chocolaterie de l’Opéra, with hints of vanilla and a slightly sugary flavor.
