My favourite perfume and a favourite food item in one. Yes please! Unveiled at the Hotel Meurice in Paris for the fifth Anniversary of Viktor and Rolf's perfume Flowerbomb, these tiny cakes are perfect for any modern day Marie Antoinette.
My love for imaginative, fantastic and sophisticated plating and presentation in food is here combined with the provocative and gentle flavours of my favourite perfume. I for one adore floral flavours in food (violet ice-cream, sakura blossom tea and mochi, jasmine tea, rose bavarois, rose-hip jam, rosewater, hibiscus syrup, lavender crème brulée, orange flower water ... the list goes on, i've tried it and loved it) These little beribboned packages house a praline, rose, bergamot and lime millefeuille with just a hint of jasmine and vanilla, topped off with a green tea biscuit and Viktor and Rolf's seal in chocolate... just what i like/LOVE!
Or should I take the challenge upon myself to recreate it?
IT'S FANTASTY!
(I just had to write that, after making that mistake so many times when trying to write "Fantasy".. the word was begging to be used... It's pretty apt isn't it?)
