The Sweetest Thing

WORDS BY THEA LEWIS-YATES

Pierre Marcolini, the worlds first ‘Haute-Chocolatier’ has collaborated with Ami’s Alexandre Mattiussi on this fabulously eccentric and beautifully designed box of wonders. Inspired by Paris streets of yesteryear, newspaper kiosks, typically French landmarks and even a chic Monsieur on a scooter, these innovative boxes are set against a backdrop of signature Ami black and white stripes. This whimsical scene is housed within the appearance of a 1950’s television. A playful object d’art which continues to charm long after its devilish contents have been devoured. More couture than Crunchie, Marcolini’s heavenly pralines propel indulgence to new levels of chic.
