Fall—The Magic Season

Filmmakers call it the magic hour—that perfect time before day becomes night, when the light softens and thoughts turn sentimental.

Each year has its magic hour, when the heat has fallen away from us, but we’re not yet cold. The world might be turning back to darkness, but not without a last fling of color—short-lived and beautiful, in the fiery oranges, reds and yellows that carry us into bare branches and spare winter light.

In love and weather, it’s what we know can’t last that makes us most wistful.

Indulge in the fleeting season with our Black Magic and White Magic bonbons—a mix of light and dark, sweet and fresh.

Catch them now. Nothing this magical is meant to last.

BLACK MAGIC

From Central Italy comes a love potion, a saffron-tinted spicy liqueur made from over 70 different barks and herbs and named after the witches, or strega, who first concocted it. Here buttery caramel lures fresh pumpkin with a splash of Liquore Strega and dark chocolate. In a spin and loving the spin it’s in—our dear pumpkin might never be the same again.

WHITE MAGIC

It's a May-September romance. The scene is set against the subtle backdrop of white chocolate. Enter the Seckel pear—petite, fresh from a New York orchard, blushing round the edges and as sweet as anything you can remember. Enter Poire William—distinguished, complex, European, usually savored after dinner by sophisticated palates. What draws them together? Could it be nostalgia? The softening light? Either way, the pairing is irresistible.
