Christmas is coming to David Hawksworth’s downtown Bel Café
Fall has arrived and there is a hint of excitement that the holidays are just around the corner. With the leaves turning a rich shade of red, Bel Café invites you to settle down in their cozy café and enjoy some festive cheer with a new range of Yuletide-inspired desserts that will be available from November 1.
Indulge this holiday season with one of Pastry Chef Wayne Kozinko’s special seasonal treats. Add a sweet twist to the countdown to Christmas with Chef’s butter tarts ($5.50 each), or go continental with raspberry Linzer Cookies ($8.50 for a box) and spiced whipped shortbread ($7 for a box); beautifully wrapped in festive boxes tied with ribbon ideal for gifting.
Take home a delicious decorative and stylish macaron tree that is good enough to eat; this gorgeously festive red, green and white candy cane-flavoured creation consists of macarons with white chocolate decorations (small $80 or large $130). Festivities continue with rich classic and fruity Christmas cake ($15), which is lovingly created months in advance to give the dried fruit opportunity to soak up the delicious boozy juices of the cake mix. For little ones or kids at heart, pick up a milk chocolate Santa ($15) created in house as an afternoon treat or the perfect stocking stuffer.
Stop by to warm up with a seasonal sip of eggnog latte (from $5.20) or opt for the spirited version with rum ($8) – all made in-house by the Bel Café team and served by their talented baristas. Pick up a box of the festive-themed candy cane macarons ($18 for box of 9) – a perfect hostess gift for those countless holiday parties.
