What we use

From sponge to finishing touch

Every element is chosen to complement flavor, texture, and the design on top.

Sponge & layers

Cake bases

Soft sponge layers baked fresh daily—vanilla bean, rich cocoa, and seasonal fruit infusions.

Finish

Buttercream & frostings

Silky Swiss meringue, whipped cream cheese, and ganache finishes—balanced sweetness, never cloying.

Inside every slice

Fillings & layers

Fruit compotes, caramel ribbons, nut pralines, and chocolate mousses between every tier.

Premium cocoa

Chocolate & cocoa

Belgian couverture and dutched cocoa for depth—melt-in-mouth, never waxy.

Natural flavor

Fresh fruit & zest

Seasonal berries, citrus zest, and purees folded in at peak ripeness.

Detail

Nuts, spices & accents

Toasted almonds, pistachio crumble, cardamom, and vanilla—measured for aroma, not overwhelm.
