Looking for an, ahem, unique way to show your devotion to your significant other this Valentine's Day? Cronut mastermind Dominique Ansel is looking to sweeten up the already toothache-inducing holiday with a $100 #CronutIsForever set that not only features two "his-and-hers" cherry Cronuts (cherry-blossom ganache with sour-cherry jam and citrus sugar), but also a limited-edition pendant capsule necklace designed by Gabriel Urist, filled with brass Cronut flakes cast from Ansel's actual pastries.
Only 100 sets will be available starting Wednesday, February 11 at 3pm (delivery before or on V-Day is guaranteed) and the only way to purchase one is through the Virgin Mega iPhone and Android apps. Fifty sets will be hand-delivered to New Yorkers, while the other 50 will be overnighted to buyers across the country. The app will also apparently help with the bakery's notoriously long lines—rather than waiting outside in the cold, the technology allows fans to "wait in line" via their phone and earn line "jumps" by engaging with other users. Anything for your beau, right? Take a closer look at the set below:
