FLAVOUR CLOUDS 

What is a dacquoise, you may ask? You will find them at Doubles Café and Eatery on Worcester Street and these ‘biscuits’ are made up of an almond meringue biscuit base with an Italian meringue buttercream filling. The filling flavours change regularly at Doubles and the kitchen team usually does tiramisu, salted caramel, berry, or Earl Grey milk chocolate. We promise they’re delicious, and they are gluten-free too!

LOVE CHOUX 

The Saint Honoré is traditionally a gateau made to celebrate the patron saint of bakers, and is now local patisserie Butter’s excuse to use more beautiful vanilla beans. Its vanilla pastry shell is filled with tender vanilla caramel, a light vanilla crème pâtissière, and topped with a vanilla infused Chantilly cream. It is garnished with crunchy caramel petit choux. This naughty treat feeds four to six sweet tooths.

WHAT THE CHOC?

So you think you’ve had good chocolate before? Well unless you’ve had Chocboii’s choc, then you definitely haven’t. Joey Williams creates limited edition chocolate packs with abstract themes, and he manages to capture the essence of emotions with non-traditional flavours and textures. His products are exclusively sold through Instagram, you’ve got to get in quick though – he sells out quicker than you can say chocola…
