From a delectable moment to the Délices de Cartier.
Press release
Gourmet recipe for delicious Délices parcels
An oval-shaped golden treat,
An elegant delight sugared with diamonds,
The sweetness of time condensed in a seductive recipe
First prepare your shape, a gentle oval,
Then choose your colouring:
Pink gold for a taste of tenderness,
White gold for a morsel of moonlight
Coat it, twist it, attract the gaze
And melt the heart with a rounded gold buckle
And irresistible curves imbued
With charm and tenderness
Next, sprinkle with carats of diamonds
For the final touch,
The cherry on the cake,
A thousand sparkles of light that capture the emotions
And now, prepare the time:
The hours that pass, sharpening appetites,
Think of the hands that point,
The numbers that beckon,
The astonishing dial
This is the challenge, the secret balance,
The generous harmony:
The success of a voluptuous and frank emulsion
In a precious parcel tied with ribbon
A confectioner's treasure, a delicate smile
Flavoured with surprise and indulgence,
Where time promises
The most wonderful of treats: a basketful of precious Délices.TECHNICAL DATAS
