Description

The pudding — the molded, turned-out dessert the French borrowed from the English table and refined, glazed and trembling on its dish.

Les Desserts brings the 19th-century pâtisserie plate to the napkin, drawn with the precision of a pastry catalogue. Four formats — dinner and luncheon napkins for the place setting, cocktail napkins for the tray, and a guest towel for the washstand — each in packs of 20.

A Note from Jeff

The French pâtisserie is one of the great applied arts of the 19th century, and Carême’s illustrated publications are among the most extraordinary objects produced by a chef at any period: volumes of engraved plates documenting confections that no longer exist, rendered with the precision of botanical illustration and the ambition of architectural drawing. A napkin printed with a numbered dessert vignette carries something of that seriousness to the table.
