It’s time to reveal the flavours!!!!
And they are… White chocolate matcha 🍵 and yuzu!! This time it’s a classic Japanese flavor combo.

(I’m surprised so many of you had the right guesses, just by looking at the colors😮)

🏆 Here are the winners:

and two more winners from Facebook Yeo Elizabeth

Congrats!!! And remember you get 50% off for this gelato duo, which is just $10🫡

Jeremy Yap you were actually the first one who commented the correct answer, but you are not following us!!! So sorry for this time; keep guessing for the future rounds (there’ll be more)😆 and thank you for participating anyways!!!

Yuzu is always my favorite citrus; it’s strong citrusy flavor with some delicate bitterness inside, just so refreshing and beautiful. You can also find some yuzu zest inside the gelato, giving different textures. I always prefer layered flavors and textures, which adds more fun to the palate, rather than just the plain single one.

As for the matcha, I used some white chocolate to balance out the bitterness and astringency of matcha. But don’t worry - it’ll not overwhelm the matcha flavor. So still classic matcha style🍵

Also, these two flavours are a good mix together! Eat them in one spoon, it gives you the third flavor 🥰

Plus, the weather this week is just perfect for some gelato!!!! 🍨

Price is the same, $20 for a 450g tub. DM for ordering. Pick up on this Sat (10 Oct), Sun (11 Oct), and Mon (12 Oct).

This is our special creation for the mid-autumn festival. In the Northern Hemisphere, Sep and Oct is osmanthus season, so we infused that delicate floral fragrance right into this cake, layered with oolong cream, tea jelly, and crisp Nashi pear. A cake that balances floral, fruity, and tea notes, leaving fragrance lingering on your palate.
A little cultural note: the handmade rabbit cookie is inspired by the Jade Rabbit of Chinese folklore, who symbolizes selflessness, purity, and longevity. So sending good wishes to you all!
