Roselle

It's probably quite obvious that I have a great love of pastry. And yet, it is seldom that I find a place where I fall into whole-hearted adoration, but when I do, it is usually hard and fast - love at first bite. On my recent trip to Toronto, I found such a love at Roselle.

Paradise: lime coconut white chocolate mousse, mango passion fruit crémeux, coconut meringue biscuit.

The Earl: milk chocolate Earl Grey infused mousse, bergamot crémeux, vanilla sponge, crispy feuilletine.

I'm not normally a fan of choux in general, but how could I resist getting an éclair when it comes in BLACK SESAME! It's filled with black sesame cream, black and white sesame praline, and hazelnut.

Latte Tart. I loved all the desserts here, but this one was my favorite. Toasted milk crémeux, espresso cream, roasted white chocolate whipped ganache, espresso soaked vanilla sponge.

Turtle Tart: milk chocolate mousse, rum-soaked chocolate biscuit, salted caramel, and candied pecans.

Earl Grey Soft Serve. Served depending on the season. If you choose to make it a next level, they add crispy, white chocolate pearls, a mini Earl Grey shortbread, and lemon cream.
