The Pie Collection
A Study of pie, distilled into chocolate
There are few desserts more nostalgic than pie. Flaky crust, bubbling fruit, warm spice, toasted sugar—the flavors are familiar, but at 1740 Confection Lab, we like to look at familiar things a little differently.
Think apple pie without the fork.
Pecan pie with a little more edge.
Pumpkin pie transformed into something entirely new.
Every bonbon is designed to capture not just the flavor of pie, but the experience of it—the contrast of buttery crust and silky filling, fruit and spice, caramel and chocolate, nostalgia and surprise.
This is pie, studied differently.
The Flavors
Caramel Apple
