My floral dream come true with Four Seasons Hotel's ethereal Floral Afternoon Tea ($48 per person/standard) by Nicolai Bergmann.

Utterly exquisite, the botanical-inspired sweets were too cute to eat! An experience for both the eyes and the palate, I enjoyed all the offerings. However, I do have some favourite items. in time for the festivities, the petite Pu Er Mandarin Crémeux Delights were really well put together. Filled with a smooth Jivara milk chocolate Pu Er crémeux, the center of the handcrafted Mandarin-shaped gem was a vibrant heart of orange puree. Tangy, rich, and complex. There was also a nice crunch from the use of hazelnut royaltine.

Similarly, the Elderflower-lemon Panna Cotta had a nice balance of textures as the velvety cream-based dessert was topped with buttery crumbs. And it didn’t taste jelat at all as the layer of lemon curd provided that lovely zing. Even though the taste of the elderflower was light and the whipped cream felt a little excessive, the classic number was equipped with that mild acidity which counters the milkiness of the silky base.
