all things PH
I’ve been a long distance fan of Pierre Hermes for awhile now, and
have to admit to a bit of an obsession lately with all things “P.H.”
It kicked back up with a look at this Japanese P.H. website…
Pierre Herme Incredible!
Let the windows of the home page change a few times before you
proceed to the “Fetish” page.
The ” Mosiac” set of desserts particularly interested me, which led
me to this new ( for me) discovery of a blog by a pastry chef and fan at
Sweet Napa.
This incredibly detailed report with pictures blew my mind!
