Sugar, no spice, but all things nice

A POPULAR haunt with those who love desserts, Siam Paragon’s ground floor is home to Gourmet Garden and its wide selection of sweet treats from bakery items, ice cream, cheese tarts, pancakes, waffles, binsu and drinks. 
Here are 10 special treats from the Garden’s residents that no one should miss. 

French-style pancake house La Creperie: Parisian Home Cooking is a good place to enjoy a variety of crepes, particularly its signature Salted Butter Caramel (Bt180) topped with sweet syrup and seasonal fruits like apricot, strawberry, pear, blueberry, and dragon fruit. 

Chocolate lovers should head to Whittard of Chelsea for W Chocolate (Bt185), sinfully rich dark chocolate with vanilla ice-cream that’s best washed down with a strong cup of tea. 

Mangoes are still in season so Brix Dessert Bar is offering the refreshing Mango Granita (Bt240). The granita is stuffed with coconut ice cream, has panna cotta as the base and ripe diced mango on top. Meanwhile, Bake a Wish has Mango Chou Ice (Bt160) with your choice of 10 home-made ice-creams, served on the side with ripe diced mango and mango sauce and a topping of light whipped cream.

Milch (Bt75) by Milch Japan is a mini cheese tart that promises to make your day while Gokoku boasts a Premium Roll Set (Bt195) filled with milky cream imported directly from Japan and decorated with strawberry, kiwi, and chocolate. 

Snow Ball (Bt290), a special dessert from Shio Restaurant, is precisely baked from minus 196 degrees to keep the shape and taste of a snowball. It might look like ice cream but the inside is a soft sweet mousse in Shio caramel, mango, strawberry milk, crunchy Ovaltine, and Thai tea flavours.

Deluxe Black Forest Waffles (Bt240) from Veganerie are guaranteed dairy product free and combine the waffle with dark chocolate and fresh berries. It’s served with vanilla ice cream, while the whipped cream is made of coconut milk. 

Croquant Choux (Bt75) - an eight-inch-long crispy fried dough treat from BakeSmith – is made of premium flour imported from France. The fillings come in three flavours –Madagascar vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate – and the dough is topped with crispy almonds. 

HomSuwan quenches thirsts with Colada Juice (Bt115) – pure pineapple juice with no sugar added.
