…it’s Pinky Tuscadero!

Rumour has it that three (3!) new cakes are debuting at Adriano Zumbo. Only managed to get my hands on 2 so far. None of them have names yet, though their descriptions are written on a bit of paper that Charlie can read out to you.

So, in the absence of a moniker, I dub this one ‘Pinky Tuscadero’, in honour of the supercool Happy Days girl.

Pinky reminds me of those creamy Chinese cakes from places like Helen’s and St Honore in Chinatown. It has a sponge cake base filled with strawberry mousse that is more tangy than sweet, so it isn’t too rich. I love the curl of choc on top as well. Rock on!!

    Yes, bowb - the one that looks like a meringued turban is new, as is Pinky and a hazelnut praline one with white and dark choc nest on top. Photos of that one soon...
