Key Lime Pears
Recchiutti Chocolates of San Francisco offer these thin but delicous paper thin unripe pear slices, that have been marinated in key lime syrup for a few days, then carefully laid out on trays and placed in a low temperature oven for about an hour to dry. After all of that fussing, there is a final step, which is to dip the lime infused crispy pear into a bitter sweet chocolate. The pears ended up becoming a favorite at Recchiutti's. Since then they have introduced an apple version as well. But we think the pears would be perfect for anyone with a "Perfect Pair/Pear" theme for their wedding. To order go to: http://www.recchiuti.com/. For apples fans, I've provided a photo of those as well. Order online for out of town brides.
Chocolate Ballotin's to Die For!
Anyone familiar with the King of Prussia Mall outside Philadelphia has probably sampled sweets from Antoine Amrani. For other locations got to: http://www.antoineamrani.com/wheretobuy. For those who don't live nearby, they can order favors from their web site at: http://www.antoineamrani.com/weddings-events/2-pc-ballotin.html or from other specialty shops carrying their brand. Simple & perfectly sized for wedding or shower favors & gift bags their 2-pc Ballotins come in brown, white, ivory, gold, or select a custom color to coordinate with your event. Each is sealed with an Antoine Amrani label.
Another option is to take their classes, but register now because they fill up quickly! Payment is required at time of your class reservation. What a great gift for someone who loves sweets! The class schedule is on their web site. They also offer factory tours which are... awe inspiring. So if you need a time out from wedding planning consider a quick trip for inspiration and relaxation.
