The Enfants Saisons series was created for the Surtout Bachelier or Surtout du mariage du Dauphin (the Dauphin's wedding table centrepiece) and consists of Autumn, Winter, Spring and Summer biscuits. The Surtout Bachelier was created to adorn the banquet table for the wedding of the Dauphin, future King Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette on 16 May 1770. The ensemble was part of the splendour of the many festivities held to mark this celebration.
