Christmas is just around the corner, and boy, we can’t wait to get our hands on some rum-soaked plum cakes! In fact, forget presents, all we want are some good ol’ desserts. After all, you know what they say, ‘Life is short, eat your dessert first’! While we wait for the festive season to begin we’ve put together a list of the best dessert places in Mumbai you’ve got to try this Christmas!
Cookies at Sweetish House Mafia
You haven’t really enjoyed Christmas, if you don’t stuff your mouth with a handful of cookies! Ask any Mumbaikar where he gets his cookie fix from, and the answer always remains the same, Sweetish House Mafia. Channel your inner cookie-monster and head straight to Sweetish House Mafia to indulge in their legendary Nutella and sea salt cookies, S’more and Sea Salt Chocolate cookies and many more. Wash them down with their oh-so-good milkshakes and coffee. This much-loved cookie-joint that was once a tiny bakery-on-wheels, has over six outlets across Mumbai today. So, no matter which part of Mumbai you’re in, you’re never too far to gorge on some cookies! Don’t forget to bring back enough cookies to last you through to New Year’s Eve and then go back for more because once the festivities are over, they will help you get over the post-Christmas blues! Trust us.
Cakes at The Rolling Pin
The Rolling Pin is Mumbai’s very own chocolate-smeared, sugar-dusted heaven. This dessert paradise is going to spoil you for choices, you’re forewarned. Try choosing just one treat while their menu teases you with cakes, tarts, brownies, doughnuts, cinnamon rolls, strudels, mousses, cupcakes, cookies, pastries, croissants, milkshakes and more! If you can’t make a choice, go for their traditional Christmas plum cake. As if the menu wasn’t enough to love The Rolling Pin, vegetarians have another reason to adore it; none of their desserts contain egg! Health conscious folks will be happy to know that there are plenty of sugar-free options too.
Macarons at Le 15 Patisserie
At Le 15 Patisserie, you’ll discover a mini Paris in Mumbai. Chic, delicious and oozing with French-ness. Le 15 Patisserie is synonymous with the best macarons in Mumbai. In fact, it was this extremely popular dessert chain that first introduced Mumbai to macarons. Since the day it opened its doors, their macarons have got everyone hooked, from celebrities to college students. It’s not all about macarons though. Their cupcakes, tarts, and pastries are just as irresistible.
Christmas Pudding at Moshe’s
Mumbai’s love affair with Moshe’s goes long back and it endures. Moshe’s is where you should be if you’re craving traditional Christmas goodies. Their Christmas pudding is loaded with all things Christmas-y – chocolate, raisins, plums, treacle, sugar, and spices! Don’t miss their Christmas cake; it is equally delicious.
Brownies at Theobroma
To any sweet loving Mumbaikar, Theobroma will always be first love. Bakeries may come, and bakeries may go, but they can’t replace Theobrama. It has managed to carve a permanent corner for itself in Mumbai’s heart. Go right in and place an order for their chocolatey, gooey brownies. You won’t regret it. But don’t stop at that, their cakes, mousses, tarts, eclairs, macarons, and cupcakes deserve your attention too!
Infinite Caramel at La Folie Lab
Don’t judge La Folie Lab by its fancy-schmancy French vibe. This is where decadence meets desserts in a fun, innovative way. Well, it’s a lab after all! From their humble hot chocolate to their luxurious pink Champagne sorbet, everything at La Folie Lab will give you a foodgasm. But it’s their Infinite Caramel that stands out as a clear hero. Subtly playing with textures and flavors, it is a layered delight of milk chocolate mousse, caramel sea salt cream, and hazelnut praline crumble. Vegetarians, this one’s for you; it’s eggless!
Put on some loose pants and head to these deliciously irresistible dessert places in Mumbai for your annual Christmas sugar rush.
