Dessert recommendations:

Rose Lychee Dome: The inspiration comes from Lancôme’s iconic brand, the symbol of the rose, plus the tribute to the rose as the ultimate source of extraordinary revitalization. The Rose lychee mousse is filled with rose cream and lychee pulp, wrapped in a round white chocolate shell, and topped with a pink chocolate rose to highlight the delicacy and sweetness. This dessert tastes sweet and sour, and rich with a mixed texture of chocolate crisp with a light rose scent.
White peach cheese mousse: The white peach cheesecake is inspired by the iconic Lancôme soft cream. The dessert is made of crystal-clear peach jam mixed with aromatic cream cheese mousse, which is exquisitely reproduced in bottled of the cream container itself. The aroma of white peach jam mixed with the silky texture of cream cheese brings a heavenly experience to dessert lovers palates.
Bailey's raspberry Cube: A white chocolate cube cake with sweet and sour raspberry jam and melt-in-your-mouth Bailey's creme topped with high-speckled pink curds, this Bailey’s Raspberry Cube dessert is inspired by the prestige concentrated of the rose serum of Lancôme that symbolizes the pure essence of rose petals, offering a divine sensation as a pleasant retreat.
