The one thing I pray to God daily is not to
make me a diabetic patient. I can’t think about a life without my daily dose of
desserts. Most of the times, I even forget the term ‘calorie’ and only think
about the taste of the desserts. Recently when I got an invite for the new
dessert menu launch at Café Mangii, I was not very sure how my experience will
be. But the team kept telling me, this is something which I shouldn’t miss.
Nowadays people are more health conscious and most of ‘em will miss the drool-worthy desserts. Café Mangii gave a
healthy take on this, with their low-calorie
desserts and came up with some guilt-free indulge desserts.

Corporate Chef Ajay Thakur has beautifully
imbibed his globetrotting experiences into a beautiful menu that the cities
haven’t experienced before. It is an amalgamation of various cooking techniques
from all over Europe, bringing together secret home recipes and twisting
classic ones to great effect.
For this high tea event, we had some of
best desserts in town along with Café Mangii’s popular pizza, pasta, and some short-eats.
Desserts I loved most –
‘Apple Crumble’ made of Flambé Apple, rich
dry fruits, almond crumble and topped with an apple crisp. On the very first
bite itself, we knew that Café Mangii’s new menu is surely an interesting one.
‘Nutella Surprise Crunch’ made of eggless
cake, Hazelnut Cremeux, milk Chocolate Mousse and Caramelized Hazelnut. I am
not a fan of ‘eggless cakes’, but this dessert just blew my mind and taste buds
both. Heaven in a plate for Chocolate lovers <3
’34 layers’ with very thin layers of
Chocolate cake, Chocolate Ganache and 54% Chocolate Mousse which will make you
say ‘Wow!. Pure bliss it was!
‘Tiramisu’ with Italian Custard, Mascarpone
cheese, and Kahlúa, Chef created an
edible piece of art for us. A must try dessert if you are bored of regular
Tiramisu.
‘Mocha Fudge Treat’ made of Mocha Fudge
cake, Coffee Cremeux, and Mocha cream was
an intense dessert and favorite of mine.
The other desserts we tried from the new
menu were –
‘Moelleux’
made of 100% Chocolate Sable, Classic French buttery biscuit and Vanilla Ice
cream.
‘Esterhazy’ made of Almond cake, Chocolate
Cream, and Orange Marmalade. Just like other desserts, this dessert was also
well plated but the fact was you cannot say no when you see this beautifully
plated dessert with the chocolate glaze.
Philadelphia Baked Cheesecake with berry
compote was simply delicious one.
Other than the delectable desserts and
finger-licking food, my drink of the day was ‘Go Goa’ which was Vodka based
cocktail with Chili and Guava. Not sure if this drink is on their menu. It was created based on a friend’s
suggestion and I absolutely enjoyed it.
All thanks to Chef Sandeep Rane from Café
Mangii, Mumbai who created these beauties and also helped us in understanding
each and every dessert.
It was great catching up few people I respect most - Wanitha Ashok, Aji Nair, Padma Kumar, Husna Sait, Rohith Chopra and Namita Gupta. Also my blogger friends who took time for checking out the new dessert menu. Thanks to team Café
Mangii for the wonderful hospitality. Next time when I have sweet cravings, I
know which place to hit first :)
