Beyond the scintillating lights in the streets, exciting events filling up our weeks, and Christmas carols echoing in the halls, the holidays also bring the sweet smell of special Christmas treats in the air!
This season,The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf® is giving us a sweet reason to indulge as it comes forth with delectable holiday pastries. A trifecta of decadent cakes awaits customers in the thick of the Christmas rush, bringing sweet comfort one slice at a time.
First on the list is a longstanding favorite, the Red Velvet Cake (Php135/slice). Between layers of moist sponge cake lie luscious servings of cream cheese frosting, showing exactly why this traditional treat has stood the test of time.
When it comes to true decadence, nothing takes the cake quite like the three-layered Salted Caramel Chocolate Cake (Php135/slice). That’s layer upon layer of lush chocolate cake, bursting at the seams with salted caramel and chocolate frosting. It’s easy to get lost in all the bliss, if not for the tickle of kosher salt to remind you that yes, this is indeed not just a dream.
For the ultimate treat that captures what the Filipino holidays truly taste like, the Ube Cheesecake (Php145/slice),presents a new yet pleasantly familiar experience. Fine dessicated coconut welcomes your palate with every bite, right before introducing you to a fine blend of homey ube and rich cream cheese. At the bottom of it all lies a graham crust the telltale texture that punctuates every glorious bite.
Also here to delight are the yummy baked treats that make perfect Christmas gifts as well. There are Sugar Cookies (Php95) and Gingerbread Man Cookies (Php105), which are as tasty as they are cute with their whimsical shapes. There’s also Almond Crunch (150g, P295; 250g,475g; 350g, P625; 450g, P795), a toffee candy made with whole roasted almonds and scrumptious chocolate.
Each handcrafted holiday pastry is brought to us by The Coffee Bean& Tea Leaf® to capture the holiday cheer, to be savored, and shared among friends and family.
