There are a couple of blogs that I truly wish I could live in. At the very top of the list is Griottes, a French style and food blog created by Emilie Griottes that is so gorgeous that I feel slightly giddy when a new post is up. The handmade whimsical aesthetic, sublime colour palettes and beautiful culinary treats… Oy. When I spotted these Pantone Tarts on Griottes this morning, I fell even more in love with the blog. Simple and stunning with pitch perfect styling, these pastries are an imaginative take on the classic colour chips while showcasing the lovely hues of everyday foods. Is it crazy to hope Emilie creates a tart for every colour in the Pantone swatch book?

So pretty! I love the colors and styling.
It’s nice but it looks a lot like the Pantone cookies already seen everywhere… like here: http://petitfourbrasil.blogspot.com/2011/03/pantone-cookies.html
Sorry, but I think Emilie’s work kicks that theme up a notch. Just gorgeous!!
Thanks for the comments guys! While the idea of interpreting Pantone chips is not a new one, I think that Emilie’s tarts are a very unique, amazingly artistic spin on the idea. I personally love seeing how people play with the notion of colour swatches/chips and this might be my favourite thus far!
I want a poster of this for my kitchen! what a perfect blend of culinary and design!
Wow where have you been all my life. Thank you so much for sharing these. My eyes practically popped out of my head when I saw these…and then further read your blog. These are so creative, beautifully styled & shot.
I adore your blog. I found you via Debs at Belle Amour this week and I’m so glad I have. Have to spend some serious time reading your blog all the way to the beginning now! I adore colour and your blog makes my eyes very happy! xx
