A collaboration between Confiture Parisienne and the Ville de Paris that tastes like a fête
Some cities whisper their romance. Paris spreads it on warm bread.
In a charming (and frankly irresistible) collaboration, Confiture Parisienne and the Ville de Paris have unveiled Paris d’Amour—a limited-edition jam created to celebrate the city’s most iconic export: love.
But this is no ordinary pot of sweetness. It’s a story.
A Recipe of Opposites That Fell in Love
At the heart of this confiture? A very Parisian encounter between contradictions: the bright acidity of Dordogne raspberries and the floral hush of elderflower. One brings tang. The other, tenderness. The result is something nearly whispered—light, barely sweet, gorgeously layered, and entirely celebratory.
And of course, like all proper love stories, it’s handmade.
Each jar is crafted under the arches of the Viaduc des Arts, inside the only artisanal jam factory within city limits. There, in copper cauldrons, fruit becomes perfume, and syrup becomes memory.
Design by the City, for the City
The label, created by the Ville de Paris graphic studio, is all charm: joyful pinks, a heart-shaped skyline, and a hint of Art Deco flirtation. It’s not just a jar—it’s a tiny design object that happens to taste like kissing someone on the pont des Arts in June.
You can find it at Paris La Boutique, the official concept store of the Hôtel de Ville (29 rue de Rivoli). The space is a curated trove of elegant souvenirs, where chic meets civic pride—perfect for finding gifts that feel like they belong on a Saint-Germain bookshelf or a Marais kitchen shelf.

The Socialites’ Tip: Dress the Gift
Wrap the jar in a monogrammed linen napkin from Charvet Place Vendôme or pair it with a knife from La Coutellerie de Laguiole for the ultimate hostess offering. For yourself? We recommend tucking one into a Rive Droite Paris tote before heading to the Buttes-Chaumont with a baguette and too much butter.
Confiture Parisienne: Not Just a Jam, a Revival
Founded in 2015 by Laura Goninet and Nadège Gaultier, Confiture Parisienne is an ode to forgotten Parisian know-how. Long before jam became the province of the provinces, it was an urban delicacy—and this Maison has revived that tradition with flair.
Their confitures—made with seasonal fruit, unrefined sugar, and no additives—have collaborated with Michelin-star chefs and maisons such as Ritz Paris, A.P.C., and even Buly 1803. Their signature white-lacquered jars are as giftable as they are delicious.

The Socialites say:
Whether you’re smearing it on toast or spooning it from the jar at midnight, Paris d’Amour is the kind of confiture that reminds you why you fell for this city in the first place. One jar, infinite declarations.
