Paul Bonlarron, Chantilly Fantasy

This unique decorative space blends the sweet world of patisserie with the art of rocaille, an ornamental technique that elevates seashells and small pebbles to adorn fountains, grottos, and whimsical architecture. For the Pitchouns Festival, Paul Bonlarron has crafted a true feast for the eyes: vases made of blue whipped cream, mascarons shaped like macarons that seem to follow your gaze, moulding-like cakes with improbable seafood flavours, a pearl-like mirror sculpted from plaster, and an astonishing tiered pavlova vase lavishly decorated with marine shells.

A delightful array of treats for the eyes and the taste buds to enjoy with the whole family!

The artist has also created colouring sheets available on-site or to take home, as well as unique face paintings to blend into the setting. At Villa Noailles, even the Christmas trees are adorned with Paul Bonlarron’s creations.

Extend the experience by signing up for family workshops led by the artist. Create your very own Chantilly Fantasy mirror to take home.
