The London Dessert Festival is no ordinary food festival.
Journeying through different experiential spaces and scented themed rooms to impact the senses, the two-day event at The Truman Brewery will include desserts from some of the best dessert brands, interspersed within four main immersive zones; chocolate, patisserie, frozen treats and a vegan zone.
Whilst moving throughout and within the zones, there will be an opportunity to try a huge range of creative desserts from participating brands. We’ve got the first scoop on what to expect…
FROZEN ZONE
Taste ice-cream flavoured bubbles, experience a wall made of ice lollies and enjoy a ceiling of raining sprinkles in this zone dedicated to all things frozen. Decked out with vibrant vinyl’s and dashes of sprinkles, this zone will pay homage to everyone’s favourite ice-cold treats. There will be nitrogen ice-cream in unique flavours, a dedicated topping station and innovative treats from some of London’s coolest dessert brands.
PATISSERIE ZONE
Venture into a pretty pink creation, as if walking into candy land. A huge doughnut wall, a colourful overhead display of piñata baked goods and baking utensils, scented with cinnamon and cookie dough will set the theme. Bountiful cherry blossoms will adorn the space.
CHOCOLATE ZONE
The chocolate zone will feature a giant melting chocolate wall and chocolate-infused tasting orbs. A silver foil installation will be overhead to reflect the unwrapping of chocolate, and there will be a complete foil chocolate wrapping room covered in the shiny material. Four of the finest chocolatiers will be showcasing their newest creations in this space.
VEGAN ZONE
Step into Eden, a garden setting with an indoor space and outside terrace. Serving only vegan delights, this zone will feature plenty of lush greenery to reflect the theme. It will be the top spot to get a fill of vegan delights.
