Zumbo's Patisserie


Zumbo, a small store located in the Queen Victoria Building (QVB), is a famous store that is owned by a world renowned dessert chef, Adriano Zumbo. The store sells a variety of different desserts that are perfect for someone with a sweet tooth. One of the desserts (as seen in the image on the left) is called Choc-a-bloc and consists of a luscious chocolate mousse that is surrounded by a crisp, nutty shell. This amazing dessert contains just the right amount of chocolate, even though it looks like it may be overpowering. The satisfying snap of the crisp milk chocolate shell, after taking the first spoonful, is complimented by the smooth but airy chocolate mousse that fills this chocolate goodness.


Another dessert that can be purchased at the store is called chocolate fondant (on the right side of the image) and consists of a rich dark chocolate fudge that makes up most of the dessert. It is also topped with a glazed strawberry, soft meringue, a tangy lime macaron, a creamy white chocolate square and is finally showered over with icing sugar. Each of these toppings taste great on their own but when accompanied by the dark chocolate fudge, it tastes even better.
