To preserve the Shine Muscat grape’s signature juicy texture and freshness, the desserts are crafted with minimal processing. Ingredients are carefully selected to enhance the fruit’s natural character, incorporating subtle acidity, delicate saltiness, and aromatic accents to deliver a unique taste in each course.

Shine Muscat Parfait

The centerpiece "Shine Muscat Parfait" layers light components that accentuate the grape’s flavor. Mint sauce adds a refreshing aroma and tang, while honey jelly, vanilla ice cream, and the rare dessert use of olive oil mousse intensify the fruit’s impression. Avoiding overpowering flavors, each element is designed to highlight the grape’s juiciness and refined sweetness. Topped with Shine Muscat grapes, blueberries, and baton amand, it offers a delightful mix of textures and colors.

Shine Muscat Desserts

The crust of the "Shine Muscat Tart" uses galette bretonne, a traditional pastry from Brittany, France. The buttery richness and subtle saltiness complement the grape’s elegant sweetness, enhancing its natural charm. The crisp, light texture paired with juicy fruit makes this simple dessert a showcase of premium ingredients. Additionally, the "Yogurt Mousse with Basil Cookie" features a basil-infused cookie and gently tangy yogurt mousse, enhanced with fresh basil and white wine cube jelly, delivering a refreshing sensation and lingering aftertaste.

Alongside these fruit-forward desserts, savory items inspired by French cuisine are offered, including cured ham, cheese, and trout salmon. The interplay of sweet and savory elements ensures a delightful experience from the first bite to the last.
