Bulgari Hotel London’s new Italian Afternoon Tea brings a taste of continental cool to the City, for a new twist on the classic British tea. Served in The Bulgari Lounge, it puts the focus on Italian ingredients and includes such sweet and savoury delicacies as Bassano white asparagus, Burrata, Umbrian truffle and contemporary Italian pastries designed by pastry Chef Gianluca Fusto.
Encompassing everything sweet on the menu, the ‘Dolci’ created for The Bulgari Lounge by pastry chef and chocolatier Gianluca Fusto include cakes ‘Torte’, Mono Porzioni for one, desserts and Il Cioccolato, Bulgari Hotels & Resorts signature handcrafted chocolate gems. With a focus on three-ingredient creations, Fusto layers flavours in a way that is bold and unexpected, innovative and masterful.
Harmony and balance is the driver of all Gianluca Fusto recipes, delivered through three key ingredients and three key textures. Introducing a journey into exotic lands, with the lightest expression of coconut, and the sweetness of mango accentuated by the sharpness of passion fruit.
The citrusy and refreshing flavours of Sicily combined with Wild Fennel and the finest almond in Southern Italy from Val di Noto, delivered as a light and subtle pastry. The dish is characterised by the contrast of three flavours, where the botanical balances the sweet.
Gianluca Fusto’s signature dish, created from a marriage of Tulakalum dark chocolate (75% cacao) from Belize, Ispica Sesame seeds, and caramel. Designed and named for pre-Columbian Mayan culture, when chocolate was considered the food of the gods and even used as currency.
The prince of Northern Italian Dolci, reimagined by Gianluca Fusto as a light and contemporary dessert, layering mascarpone with single origin Colombian and Parisienne coffee and a side scoop of Tiramisu sorbet.
