Savour a new nature-inspired afternoon tea to satisfy your sweet tooth at Mirage. You can embrace the breeze of the ocean and relax at the rustic forest by enjoying a selection of dainty savouries and sweets crafted by our Chefs.

Roger designs six stunning sweet morsels representing the Forest. The silky-smooth Tahiti vanilla mousse in Vanilla Rock is pleasantly mixed with berries and plated on a buttery sablé breton. The sweet and sour Cherry enlivens the taste buds with the cherry confit filled with white chocolate mousse, which gives “Cherry” a new twist. The Cocoa Bean features the rich flavour of 70% dark chocolate truffle with a touch of salted caramel. The mushroom-shaped aged Whisky Ganache brings a tantalizing contrast of melt-in-the-mouth ganache and crispy chocolate. Walnut Mille-Feuille is composed of enticing walnut custard sandwiched between caramelized puff pastry with aromatic walnut flavour. Renaissance Cheesecake topped with sour cream presents a classic touch to end your forest journey.

The pandan sponge also adds a touch of Asian flavour to the YUZU. Freshen up your palate with a bite of gluten-free Strawberry, Vanilla, Basil. The strawberry granita, airy basil foam and poached strawberries above the vanilla panna cotta fill your mouth with refreshing strawberry flavours that balance well with the panna cotta.
