Lady M IFC (Hong Kong, CHINA) ★★★★☆

Some of us were complaining about the lack of creativity seen from the Lady M team earlier this year. Ever since they introduced the earl grey mille crepes, there's been nothing new on the horizon.



Our prayers were finally answered a couple of months ago when Lady M launched a number of new pastries including two in their signature mille crepes series.



While the Earl Grey mille crepes were no longer shown on the menu, a pair of new mille crepes flavors, rose and salted caramel, took its place.



Rose Mille Crepes ($75) - This looks really good. As usual, the Lady M signature creation comes with no less than 20 paper-thin layers of handmade crepes. In between the different layers was rose flavor infused pastry cream and they have it garnished with sweet rose jelly and edible rose petals on top. Very elegant.



I thought this was arguably the most refreshing flavor from Lady M's mille crepes series. The texture was remarkably fluffy and the silky smooth pastry cream, rose jelly and rose petals were the perfect icing on the cake.



Salted Caramel Mille Crepes ($75) - A Hong Kong exclusive so I'm definitely not leaving the boutique without one. It was layered with salted caramel infused pastry cream and garnished with a buttery glaze and crunchy cacao nibs. The texture was again perfect but the flavors were a little too rich for me.
