BONNE MAMAN FESTIVE
Bonne Maman, the iconic French brand known for its gingham-lidded jams and spreads, is bringing a taste of festive comfort to Hong Kong through a limited-time collaboration with homegrown specialty café Elephant Grounds. Available from 18 November to 18 December 2026 at the café’s Hollywood Road and Star Street locations, the four-item menu pairs Bonne Maman’s comforting jams and spreads with Elephant Grounds’ inventive café approach, from a chestnut-and-blueberry Mont Blanc Danish to candy-cane churros served with chocolate hazelnut spread. Adding a little sweetness to the season, dine-in guests who order any two items from the collaboration menu will receive a complimentary mix-and-match set of four Bonne Maman mini jars, while stocks last.
Born in Biars-sur-Cère in southwest France, where it is still proudly produced to this day, Bonne Maman takes its name from an affectionate French term for grandmothers, a nod to the warmth and generosity at the brand's heart. For generations, its preserves have celebrated 100% natural ingredients: the finest fruit, carefully selected from the best fruit-growing regions and harvested at optimal ripeness, combined with natural sugar, lemon juice and fruit pectin. Each batch is gently cooked to preserve the fruit's true character, yielding Bonne Maman's signature fruity taste and rich texture in every jar. The iconic gingham lids and handwritten-style labels, inspired by the first jars lettered by founder Jean Gervoson’s wife, Suzanne, evoke the comforting charm of homemade preserves.
This festive season, the collaboration brings that spirit to Hong Kong's Elephant Grounds, with four co-created treats made for festive indulgence. Each showcases a different Bonne Maman jam or spread, from classic raspberry and blueberry to indulgent chocolate hazelnut and seasonal chestnut.
Mont-Blanc Myrtilles Danish: A French-inspired festive classic, with a fruity twist.
A cube-shaped croissant filled with Bonne Maman Chestnut Spread and Bonne Maman Blueberry Jam, balancing mellow chestnut sweetness with a tart, fruity contrast. Finished with a whole chestnut and a dusted snowflake to complete the festive finish.
PB&J Brioche French Toast: A comforting favourite, reimagined.
Brioche French toast filled with Bonne Maman Crunchy and Smooth Peanut Spread and Bonne Maman Raspberry Jam, then coated in toasted coconut flakes. Crisp texture, nutty richness and bright raspberry tang give the familiar PB&J pairing an indulgent new form.
Churro Cane & Choco-Noisette: A playful take on the Christmas candy cane.
Cinnamon-sugar churros shaped into candy canes, served with a mini jar of Bonne Maman Chocolate Hazelnut Spread for dipping, a festive treat to enjoy one delicious bite at a time.
Chestnut Crème Matcha: An earthy-meets-sweet seasonal pairing.
A dual-layer matcha drink topped with house-crafted crème foam made with Bonne Maman Chestnut Spread. The earthy depth of matcha meets the rounded sweetness of chestnut in a beautifully balanced pick-me-up.
A little French charm, a little sweetness to take home
Throughout the collaboration, festive Bonne Maman illustrations will decorate both participating cafés, bringing a touch of the brand’s signature French charm into Elephant Grounds’ Hong Kong spaces.
The complimentary four-mini-jar set offers guests a taste of Bonne Maman to share or savour at home. Available for dine-in guests while stocks last with the purchase of any two collaboration menu items, the mix-and-match gift is a simple way to share a little Bonne Maman during the festive season.
Price starts from HK$40, the Bonne Maman x Elephant Grounds Festive Menu is available for dine-in and takeaway at Elephant Grounds Hollywood Road and Star Street from 18 November to 18 December 2026.
