This post is a self-promotion by Andopatisserie, highlighting their new dessert, the Popcorn Caramel Pudding Crepe Roll. The dessert is described as having a silky-soft caramel pudding made from scratch, enveloped in a popcorn cream. The cream is prepared by infusing real popcorn in heavy cream overnight to capture its essence. The dessert is a crepe roll that offers a creamy, caramel-y, and slightly salty flavor profile, with a prominent popcorn taste. It is presented as a unique and delightful treat.
Four Treats offers Ube Tres Leches at Ubeland, a milky cake dessert with ube.
