Compartes Chocolate and Macallan Truffles

Melt more than hearts with this delicious marriage of single-origin chocolate and 18-year scotch
compartes_maccallan.jpg

For those who love chocolate and booze together but have grown beyond liqueur-filled mini chocolates, Compartes Chocolatier recently introduced a limited-edition box of scotch whisky-infused dark truffles. With our favorite The Macallan 18-year single-malt scotch enriching the deep flavor of the single-origin ganache, we’re fans. As the truffle melts in your mouth, the subtle taste of whisky comes through—sounds like a perfect Valentine’s day gift. So either pick up a 10-piece box for yourself or for a loved one for $30 from the Compartes online shop.


Future fabrication: N55’s Spaceplates

Here’s an unusual take on how we might build things in the future: The subversive Danish creative collective known as N55’s Spaceplates. The idea is that we would have the proverbial shit-ton of sheet goods delivered to our home, and we’d break out a domestic CNC, download some plans and have it start carving up modular units that we’d then put together.

Le Programme de ma Semaine

Plan week by week with this Francophile notebook
marks_day-nb8-pk.jpg

Combining their love of French tendance with clean and playful design, Tokyo stationery brand Mark’s Inc. aptly call their striking weekly planner “Le programme de ma semaine.” Each page features a blank calendar with the days divided into two sections, while the unprinted reverse side provides ample room for jotting down notes. The spiral-bound style helps both for laying it open on a desk or for times like Fashion Week when you’ve got to stay on task but your adorably tiny purse won’t allow for the full notebook.

I happen to love this vibrant raspberry color, but the planner comes in a variety of colors from their online shop Mark’s Tokyo Edge (¥420) as well as from Papernation (£5) in the U.K. If you’re in Barcelona or Madrid, you might find it where I did (thanks Maite!) at the great bookstore

Daily Obsesh – Unzipped Glass Zipper Bag

imageThere’s only one way to calm a sweet tooth – it’s called candy. Lots and lots of candy. Yum! But you can’t have your sweets laying out all over the place. They need a home too.


And the one we love the best here at Stylehive is this – a glass bag that pays homage to the handy little Ziploc, except this isn’t one that you toss when you’re done with it. Instead, you just fill it up with more of your favorite treats and simply reach one hand into the always ‘unzipped’ opening when you get a craving.


It doesn’t get better than that … or at least, it doesn’t get any sweeter.

Price – $20.00
