At the Crillon, pastry chef Matthieu Carlin launches his "Rencontres Sucrées".

Mathieu Dubus | 9/17/24, 4:34 PM

From this autumn until spring 2025, the head pastry chef at Crillon, A Rosewood Hotel, Matthieu Carlin, is organizing a series of "Rencontres Sucrées" around pastries.

Some news is more mouth-watering than others, especially if you're a fan of sweet treats. The Hôtel de Crillon, A Rosewood Hotel, is offering 5 dates for the curious. During these five "Rencontres Sucrées", the Parisian pastry chef Matthieu Carlin will join forces with various experts in each field to which he will link his creations. Each of these days will take place in the special world of Guy Savoy's former resident, the hotel's Butterfly Pâtisserie boutique. He will be holding workshops for groups of 12 to 14 people.

Patisserie meets different culinary worlds

If there's one thing that makes this initiative special and intriguing, it's its willingness to combine patisserie with very different culinary universes. To begin with, on October 3, 2024, Matthieu Carlin will be joined by Arnaud Dhenin, co-founder of L'Autre Thé. For almost 20 years, this tea lover has been offering selections of organic products. Together, they will try to create a union between these two end-of-meal pleasures.

Four other associations will follow. On November 21, 2024, Mr. and Mrs. Gerandi, managers of Rondeline, a citrus orchard in Corsica, will join the capital. On December 12, 2024, the spices of SHIRA's creator and source, Roï Hendel, will season the pastries. On January 23, 2025, a special session, the Crillon's savoir-faire will be doubled with the presence of chef Xavier Thuizat. Voted Meilleur Sommelier de France 2022 and Meilleur Ouvrier de France 2023 in sommellerie, he is the Crillon's year-round head sommelier. Together, they will combine pastries with "the finest champagnes", explains the press release. Note that this "Rencontre Sucrée" will be priced at 235 euros, as opposed to 150 euros for the others. Hippolyte Courty will close the ball on March 13, 2025. The creator of L'Arbre à Café is an expert on France's most popular hot beverage.

Where to find him? Butterfly Pâtisserie, Hôtel de Crillon, A Roosewood Hotel, 6 Rue de Boissy d'Anglas, 75008 Paris
