Louis Sherry Makes the Swankiest, Chicest and Most Delicious Chocolates Around
In the late 1800’s Louis Sherry was an important name in New York City, starting as a restaurateur turned confectioner and eventually hotelier. Does the Sherry-Netherland Hotel ring a bell?
But Sherry’s chocolates, with names like Jamaican Rum (aged 7-year-old Jamaican Rum blended with a milk chocolate ganache), Sicilian Orange and Strawberry Romanoff (made with “frais de bois” strawberries and orange liqueur with a hint of vanilla) made his name iconic. This upscale brand of sweets is not your average box of “Sampler” chocolates — and now, you can get them at Collage Home.

If the delicious-sounding names aren’t enough to get you excited about our new treats, just look at the packaging! Louis Sherry is not only known for his candy, he was also marketing genius. By using these unforgettable rainbow colored tins to hold these chocolate delights, Sherry created a brand unlike any other in the Gilded Age in Manhattan.
This year, Louis Sherry has introduced the designer series for their 12 piece tins. Among those featured in the series is designer Harrison Howard who has been recognized for his screen prints, watercolors, easel paintings and panels. Focusing on the whimsical Asian stylings of chinoiserie, Howard has been commissioned by Caspari, a renowned name in the world of printed paper products. Caspari and Howard’s exquisite designs have proven to be a favorite of our Collage Home friends.
