The Luxury Collection, part of Marriott Bonvoy’s global portfolio of 31 hotel brands, announces a new collaboration with Global Explorer Laila Gohar creating a transformative cake experience at Prince de Galles, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Paris.
Paris, the City of Light, has always been a muse for artists and gourmands alike, and now, a captivating collaboration at Prince de Galles, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Paris, is poised to dazzle luxury travelers and gourmet enthusiasts. The Luxury Collection, a part of Marriott Bonvoy’s prestigious portfolio, has joined forces with Global Explorer Laila Gohar, renowned for her avant-garde culinary creations, to introduce a transformative cake experience that transcends art and taste.
A Whimsical Masterpiece in Pastry
Just in time for Paris Fashion Week, Prince de Galles will be adorned with a 10-foot-tall cake installation, a masterpiece brought to life by Laila Gohar’s Surrealist touch. The installation is a testament to the artistry and creativity that defines Paris, a city that has always served as a wellspring of inspiration for visionaries like Laila.
The cake’s design is nothing short of mesmerizing, with soft pink and green pastel hues and intricate, expertly ‘piped’ adornments, all culminating in a whimsical cherry on top. What makes this creation even more remarkable is that all non-edible parts of the sculptures are crafted from repurposed and recycled materials, aligning with the principles of sustainability.
Taste the Art
For those who wish to savor a piece of this artistry, Laila Gohar has transformed her statement-making installation into an edible petite confection. This delectable treat, available at Bar 19.20, features layers of coconut with raspberry compote and pistachio buttercream—a true indulgence for the palate. Served alongside a glass of champagne, this culinary masterpiece is a limited-time offering, available until the end of 2023.
But the experience doesn’t stop there. Laila Gohar has also created a matching gateau-inspired candle, exclusively designed for The Luxury Collection and available through Gohar World. This beautifully crafted candle serves as a sensory homage to the artistry of French patisserie and can be shipped globally, allowing enthusiasts worldwide to partake in this sensory journey.
A Celebration of Cultural Exploration
Laila Gohar’s collaboration with The Luxury Collection is part of the Global Explorer program, which celebrates the richness and diversity of the world’s most enchanting destinations through the eyes of cultural luminaries. Born in Egypt, Laila has traversed the globe as an internationally recognized artist, using food as her creative medium. Her partnership with The Luxury Collection extends beyond this confectionary masterpiece; she has previously collaborated to create a globally inspired barware collection with cocktail recipes inspired by her travels with the brand.
