Newcastle’s dessert lovers are in for a decadent treat this Valentine’s Day as QT Hotels & Resorts partners with cult-favourite bakery Black Star Pastry for a month-long celebration of love and indulgence.
Marking Black Star Pastry’s first national expansion, this exclusive collaboration will bring two exquisite cakes, The Love Bomb and The Ghost, to QT’s signature dining restaurants and room service menus, offering a delicious take on the highs and lows of modern romance.
The Love Bomb is designed for those who crave deep, rich chocolate flavours, with layers of chocolate financier, crèmeux, sponge, mousse ganache, and a striking raspberry chocolate shard garnish. It’s an explosion of texture and intensity, perfect for impressing a date or treating yourself to a luxurious moment of indulgence.
On the lighter side, The Ghost takes inspiration from fleeting romantic encounters, balancing delicate textures and refreshing flavours. A soft sponge base, crunchy surprise layer, vanilla mousse, and a vibrant strawberry and raspberry compote create a harmonious blend of sweetness and tartness. Crowned with a chocolate truffle coated in milk-coconut, this dessert is a playful nod to love stories that disappear as quickly as they begin.
To add a touch of whimsy, each dessert comes with its own love letter, and QT Hotels is offering diners a chance to win an overnight stay every week throughout the promotion. Whether you’re celebrating love, heartbreak, or simply a love of sweets, this exclusive menu brings an element of fun and indulgence to Valentine’s Day in Newcastle.
From February 14 to March 14, Newcastle food enthusiasts will have the opportunity to experience Black Star Pastry’s famed craftsmanship paired with QT’s signature charm. With only a limited time to enjoy these creations, head over to qthotels.com to book a table for an unforgettable dessert experience.
