Pierre Hermé Paris is proud to announce the launch of a new location in the capital of Azerbaijan, Baku. Offering a true Parisian experience, the collections of Macarons & Chocolats now is available in The Port Baku Mall.

Chef Pâtissier Pierre Hermé comes from a long heritage of pastry professionals and began his career at the age of 14 as an apprentice to Gaston Lenôtre. The influence of this legendary Master Pâtissier was the beginning of a journey for Pierre Hermé who went on in his early 20's to become Head Chef Pâtissier of the exclusive Parisian Food Hall, Fauchon, where he remained for 11 years until 1996 when the Pierre Hermé Paris story began.

Pierre Hermé's macarons have evolved over the course of his career. His initial foray into his lifelong relationship with the macaron started in the mid 1970's when he questioned the traditional approach to this French delicacy. In 1986, he introduced new, bold flavours for that time like Rose and Pistachio which have now become classics. His passion continued to grow and he began to develop textures and flavour combinations like Lime & Basil, he created seasonal macarons such as White Truffle & Hazelnut and played with texture and flavour release with Olive Oil & Vanilla containing small pieces of olive.

Like a perfumer, Pierre Hermé has created his own blend of flavours such as the house vanilla selection, which combines 3 different types of vanilla - from Tahiti, Madagascar and Mexico, or his exclusive chocolate used to create Mogador - a signature milk chocolate and passion fruit flavour. The respect given to the raw ingredients allows an intensity of flavour where, in the opinion of Pierre Hermé, sugar is added only as a condiment and where salt gives balance.

The boutique in Baku will offer Pierre Hermé Paris Macarons such as Infiniment Chocolat Païneras (Pure Origin Brazilian Dark Chocolate), Infiniment Rose (Rose & Rose Petal), Crème Brûlée (Vanillas & Caramel Bits), Infiniment Pistache (pure Sicilian Pistachios), and Mogador (Milk Chocolate & Passion Fruit), to name just a few.

Also available in Baku, the Pierre Hermé Paris chocolate collection. With a selection of house flavours and exclusive chocolate blends, this collection echoes the macarons with ganaches and pralines housed in a shell of exclusively blended chocolate.

The Pierre Hermé Paris Bonbons de Chocolat selection includes Makassar (Salted-butter Caramel Mousse Ganache, enrobed in Dark Chocolate) and Ouvre-toi (Sesame Praline & Sesame Nougat, enrobed in Milk Chocolate). But also, among others, Lou (Ginger and Milk Chocolate Ganache, Candied Ginger, enrobed in Dark Chocolate) or unique Choc Chocolat (Bitter Chocolate Ganache, Nougatine with Cacao Nibs, enrobed in Dark Chocolate).

"Pierre Hermé Paris" opens at January 2015 in the "Port Baku Mall".
