Here's a new concept for lovers of pastry and exceptional places, inviting you to experience a privileged moment of exchange and passion around the art of dessert. Once a month at theHôtel de Crillon, after the Butterfly patisserie has closed, secret meetings of sweet tooths take place in the tea room. At these gatherings, pastry chef Matthieu Carlin brings together his twelve guests for an hour-and-a-half-long tasting workshop, during which he shares the recipes of his technique in a moment of exchange that is both exclusive, educational and gourmet.
Come on, we'll let you in on the secret: it's the Rencontres Sucrées. At each meeting, the pastry chef invites producers and talents from the world of gastronomy to highlight an ingredient and showcase their place in the world of pastry. From tea to Corsican clementines, not forgetting spices and champagne, each event has its own theme.
At the end of these confidential, intimate encounters, the twelve guests leave with a few surprises to continue the experience at home. To attend these exceptional workshops in the heart of the palace, you'll generally need to pay €150 per person, with the exception of the special champagne session with Xavier Thuizat, the hotel's Head Sommelier, voted France's Best Sommelier.
