Vosges Sweet Coquette Collection
Let the courtship begin! Vosges Haut-Chocolat has a new Valentine's Day box for all you lovebirds. This limited edition Sweet Coquette Collection is encased within a beautiful handmade Victorian heart box. Designed by Chicago fashion designer Frog Greishaw, this creation is an homage to the elaborate Victorian-era valentines. Pink satin pleating, French netting and a black leather rose completes the eternal ode to love.
The aphrodisiac truffles within are sexy and stimulating - you and your valentine get to try flavors like Absinthe (Chinese star anise, fennel, and pastis), Bronte (Sicilian pistachio paste & rose water), Mamajuana (Mamajuana & chamomile) and Edith (Piper Heidsieck Rose Sauvage Champagne & rosebud tea). For me, the most intriguing truffle was the white chocolate Kumamoto (pearl dust & Kumamoto oysters). You'd be surprised, but a tinge of oyster essence adds an interesting taste experience to white chocolate.
To make things even more romantic, Vosges teamed up with boutique hotel expert Mr. & Mrs. Smith and Kiki de Montparnasse for a luxurious giveaway. The lucky winner gets two nights at the Hotel des Academies et des Arts, a membership to Vosges' Lunar Chocolate of the Month Club, and a $500 lingerie shopping spree from Kiki de Montparnasse. You'll also have a personal consultation with a Romance Concierge to plan the perfect evening in Paris.
