PETIT FOURS · Berlin
some couples prefer to send a little something sweet home with their wedding guests. At The Ritz-Carlton, Berlin, Executive Pastry Chef Antje Rauterberg crafts his-and-hers petit fours — cognac-laced dark chocolate for the gents, strawberry-imbued hearts enveloped in red couverture for the ladies — as favors for guests. The diminutive desserts are inscribed with the names of the bride and groom or their wedding date. It’s a fanciful flourish that serves as a remembrance for family and friends, one that lingers long after the actual favor itself.
