The Pastry Chef Collection from Swatch

If anyone ever asked me what was the sweetest event I had ever been to, I would tell them, “Swatch’s Pastry Chef Collection launch”. Entering the event venue was like entering a mini-cake shop. Blue, pink, green, yellow, peach, brown—this Swiss watch brand knew the best way to put our favourite candy store finds and pastries on the wrist. In its latest Spring 2014 collection, you will find macaroons, chocolate sprinkles and all-things sweet adorning these Swatch watches.

Keeping up to their tradition of hosting out-of-the-ordinary events, Swatch launched the collection amidst music, dance and sugar highs. To mark the launch, Swatch brought in popular pastry chef Kainaz Messman, who conducted a master class with truffle cupcakes and ensured the audience participated in decorating them with colourful fondants, cutouts and edible colours.

These watches will delight your weakness for candy, sans the toothache. Some of the confection-inspired creations include the peppermint-shaped bracelet of Sminty and layered rings on the Caramellissima.
Inspired by Sara Hochuli’s Japanese-style cakes, the Dream Cake watch is a limited edition timepiece that’s unabashedly feminine and oh-so-sweet with cascading cherry blossoms and a big pink bow on the watch strap. A cake knife and a fork form the hands on the dial of this timepiece. From liquorice to marshmellows, you are sure to find your favourite Pastry Chef watch.
Available in leading Swatch boutiques, the pricing of these watches starts at Rs 3,900
