Le Château Gingerbread Haut-Chocolat Calendar of Advent

One-of-a-Kind. Limited Edition. Made to Order. 

For the first time in the history of Vosges, we are delighted to unveil our made-to-order, handcrafted Le Château Gingerbread Haut-Chocolat Calendar of Advent. This one-of-a-kind collection brings the magic of the holiday season to life and is available only for a limited time. Made-to-order, this exquisite gift will not be available after July 24th – a truly bespoke chocolate experience.

Two years in the making, Le Château Gingerbread Haut-Chocolat Calendar of Advent is a marvel inspired by the Notre Dame cathedral. Picture a grandiose castle with a vaulted ceiling, ornate columns, candied stained glass windows, and flying buttresses. It's adorned with glitter-encrusted icing, a shimmery gumdrop roof, snowy pearls, and swirling peppermints. Nostalgic candy pieces and gingerbread characters come to life in a magical orchestra playing the Nutcracker Op. 71 Russian Dance, March of the Wooden Soldiers, and Vivaldi's Four Seasons, Violin Concerto in F Major with their peppermint pipes and candy cane flutes.

Each Le Château Gingerbread includes 25 days of chocolate surprises, a velvet Santa bag filled with special treats for the "man in red," and a Limited-Edition Vosges x Linnea and Co Soy Candle in Nordic Forest that will add to the yuletide ambiance.

TASTING NOTES

A Guided Tasting of Chocolate
Our haut-chocolat is infused with a healing sound frequency to raise your vibe.

BREATHE
Close your eyes. Take three deep, ujjayi breaths. Listen to the space between thought and prepare your palate to experience chocolate.

SEE
Describe what you see. What is the shape, color, sheen and texture?

TOUCH
Run your finger against the chocolate, noticing its texture and releasing the aromatics.

SMELL
Bring the chocolate to your nose. Close your eyes, cup your hand around the chocolate and inhale deeply.

TASTE
Enjoy your haut-chocolat in two bites. In the first bite, you are just getting to know the haut-chocolat, and in the second, you delve deeper, searching out the aromas and nuances. You become immersed in the experience of the chocolate and the sensations. After you’ve eaten the haut-chocolat, take a breath and taste the air. The aroma should have a long, lingering finish that is layered with perfumed notes.



THE STORY

Inspired by the magical essence of the holidays, capturing the mesmerizing spirit with extravagant decorations, elegant outings, melodious music, and the joy of adorning cookies with sparkling sugar and playful icing, Le Château Gingerbread’s architecture draws from the iconic Notre Dame cathedral, featuring a vaulted ceiling, ornate columns, candied stained glass windows, and flying buttresses. Adorned with glitter-encrusted icing, a shimmering gumdrop roof, snow-like pearls, and swirling peppermints, it brings nostalgic candy pieces and gingerbread characters to life. Celebrating deep traditions and happy rituals, this box fills hearts with treats, the spirit of giving, and pure holiday magic. In September, true to the past, we will launch a second Advent Calendar, similar in size and price to last year's along with our Advent Refill Giftbox.
