Dessert First!
Hands up who opts for dessert first?
Sweet tooths rejoice, as the City of Port Phillip are celebrating all things dessert this winter, with a program of 60 desserts in 60 days for all to enjoy!
The Dessert First program runs from 12 June to 7 August and encourages both locals and visitors alike to dress for the elements and enjoy a sweet treat in the many outdoor dining areas throughout Port Phillip.
From cheese platters, puddings and hotcakes to wickedly delicious cocktails, the line-up features a variety of delights from many cuisines.
We're super excited to see some of our very own Market traders featured in the program:
- Agathé Patisserie - Pandan Croissant
- Agathé is famous for her mouth-watering, buttery croissants, but have you tried her bright green pandan croissant?
- Cannoleria - Winter Persimmon Ricotta Cannoli
- This is Cannoleria’s signature Sicilian ricotta infused with fresh persimmon. Persimmon or “cachi” are very popular in autumn and at the start of winter in Italy.
- La Central Spanish Deli - Basque Cheesecake
- Hailing from northern Spain, this cheesecake is a delicate, tender cake with a creamy heart and a toasty brown top.
- Little Hof - Apfelstrudel
- This traditional Bavarian dessert has won many fans, finding that perfect crunch of the pastry with the soft, juicy apples and sultanas.
