Alléno & Rivoire x Persée: the most precious Easter egg of the year
This year's Easter egg hunt could turn out to be much more successful than usual, thanks to the initiative of Alléno & Rivoire and the Persée jewelry house.
What if this year your Easter egg hid more than just praline? What if, under a thin shell of chocolate, there was a real jewel? No, this isn't a chocolate fairy tale, but a collaboration between Alléno & Rivoire chocolaterie and Persée jewelry. Here's how it works.
A hidden ring or bracelets
For Easter 2025, Yannick Alléno and his chocolate-making partner Aurélien Rivoire have created a limited edition of eggs containing a surprise... of luxury. By teaming up with designer Nawal Laoui, founder of Persée, they finely blend two worlds with similar requirements: a taste for detail, a love of noble materials and a quest for perfection.
Behind this unexpectedly poetic idea lies a veritable treasure hunt. Among the eggs "in the shell" from Maison Alléno & Rivoire, one delicacy will hide a round gold Floating ring, valued at €1,480, while ten others will contain an Eternam bracelet, each worth €250.
These delicate, contemporary creations will be inserted into the heart of the egg, only to be revealed once the shell has been broken. A surprise made all the more delicious by the fact that it blends the art of chocolate with that of jewelry.
Chocolate and jewelry: two worlds with much in common
This partnership is based on a natural affinity: "Our chocolates are often described as gastronomic jewels", explain Yannick Alléno and Aurélien Rivoire, who work chocolate with the rigor and meticulousness of goldsmiths. Persée, with its clean lines and taste for minimalism, perfectly complements this approach.
Beyond the aesthetic wink, the operation embodies a shared vision of excellence, in which each creation - whether savored or worn - tells a story, provokes an emotion.
The eggs have been available since April 5, 2025, in Alléno & Rivoire's two Paris boutiques:
- 25, rue du Vieux-Colombier, 75006 Paris
- 9, rue du Champ-de-Mars, 75007 Paris

Rhubarb emerges from the shadows
The queen of rustic pies and crumbles, rhubarb is best enjoyed as a fruit, whereas it is a vegetable. This original plant leaves behind its old-fashioned trappings to spice up the most creative dishes and awaken both sweet and savory palates. One of the first spring vegetables, but the most recent to hit our plates, it's making a name for itself time and time again.
