According to Executive Chef Marco Violano of the upcoming festivities said this year, our talented team has created a whole array of new and unique treats. While we may not be able to meet up as easily as in the past, we can certainly share our good fortune by giving gifts of joy to those whom we cherish most.
Located on one of Jakarta’s central roads, Jalan Gatot Subroto, Four Seasons Hotel Jakarta is an intimate city-centre oasis known for its culinary prowess and delectable confectionaries, led by Executive Pastry Chef Lorenzo Sollecito and his team.

The festive offerings arrive in a custom-made box, created in the lucky colours of those born under this auspicious sign – cerulean blue and imperial yellow. Find delicious goodies such as premium cookies, fine teas, La Patisserie signature bon bons and chocolate bars, and Four Seasons angpao envelopes, along with other indulgent treats.
Discover two superbly crafted cakes, he continued either one the perfect centrepiece for family gatherings. They also make impressive gifts for esteemed colleagues and dear friends.

The traditional Lapis Legit Cake (IDR600,000++) is elevated to another level, topped with edible 24K gold leaf and packaged in the distinctive La Patisserie cake box.
It is said that those born under the sign of the water tiger are quick learners with a passion for novelty and creativity.
