The Langham Hong Kong’s Sweet Blossom Afternoon Tea
The Langham, Hong Kong is partnering with the luxury fragrance brand Cochine to present the Sweet Blossom Afternoon Tea with an enchanting Vietnamese touch.
Founded in 2009, Cochine products are made in Vietnam and France using the finest essential oils extracted from Vietnamese plants, reflecting Saigon’s distinctive blend of oriental charm in a range of soothing candles, diffusers and fragrances.
Infused with delightful fresh, floral scents, its latest premium smoothing hand cream collection incorporates various nutrients including vitamin E, apricot kernel oil and natural sodium hyaluronate, which promises effective moisturising while leaving skin nourished with botanical aromas.
Four Captivating Scents
The four captivating scents of the new hand cream, have been transformed into bite-sized afternoon tea pastries served at Palm Court, such as the Vietnamese Cassava coconut dacquoise with green jasmine mousse inspired by White Jasmine & Gardenia; Frangipani Canelé with a hint of orange blossom coated with pink chocolate and a blossoming sugar frangipani on top to reflect Frangipani & Neroli; Tuberose & Wild Fig is turned into a Girl with the Tuberose, a choux pastry filled with wild fig and Sicilian lemon compote; rose-shaped pavlova meringue La Rose with cherry mousse filling, rose and mascarpone cream as an innovation from Vietnamese Rose & Delentii. The last sweet treat is a mini Scented Candle of white chocolate and green cardamom mousse, hazelnut gianduja and vanilla, which echoes Cochine’s signature product that carries the hint of Vanille & Tabac Noir.
Savoury Treats
The savoury treats of the afternoon tea also show a splendid twist of old Saigon as a tribute to the origin of the fragrance brand. Featuring Mini “Bánh Mì” Brioche, a thinly sliced beef roll with shredded carrots, liver pâté, pickles, cucumber sitting on the bread and drizzle with special Vietnamese dressing consisting of lime juice and Thai basil. Another exotic piece is the Slow Cooked Roulade of Organic Chicken on Homemade Pesto Bread, highlighting the blend of sweet chilli sauce and mayonnaise spread between the bread layers.
