Divan patisserie offers hand-made gourmet products with prestige, luxury and quality to make your experience abiding sweet. They have been serving for the last half century and known as a prestigious high end brand in Istanbul. They are already operating in USA, Russia,France and UK and now just have opened in #dubaimall in pursuit of tantalizing palates here in UAE.
The ambiance is very chic with clean design and spacious area makes it a perfect place to have a tea break while shopping or satisfy your sweet cravings.At one side there is a long counter showcasing assorted delicacies available in the menu. I was surprised to know they import all the products from Istanbul in freeze form, they defrost and decorate here in order to serve the same taste and quality.
The most eye catching sight which is easily noticeable even passing across the shop is chocolate wall .Kid inside me really got excited and wanted to get my hands dirty in chocolate (don’t judge me). Tall jars filled with dragee in different colors displayed in exquisite manner,all white, golden and silver were white chocolate coated nuts(hazelnuts,almonds and walnuts). Even though they all were coated with chocolate but the freshness of nuts were intact that shows the quality of products being used.
Delicacies were served to us in cute small silver tier stands. There were macrons,cookies and some savory items. Among all the macrons my favorites were orange and pistachio flavor. Cookies were fresh and light and equally good in sweet and savory flavors.Oh!!! when it comes to chocolate, more is less but after eating so much sweets I needed a break and wanted to neutralize my palate which I did with hot cup of Turkish Tea. Perfectly brewed and prepared my taste bud to dig in again in sweet land. I resumed again with chocolates, smooth and creamy taste left me baffled which one was better than the other.
I also got to try some of their cakes variety like almond and cheesecake and without any doubt cheesecake won the game. Perfectly sweet and luscious cream cheese made every bite impeccable.
After reading all this if you have become their fan and thinking to gift away some of these gorgeous sweets with your loved ones then they have perfect ideas of presentation. Beautiful handmade silver trays and cute boxes uplift the gift game up a notch.
At the end I would say if you fancy sweet treats than this is worth visiting place,drop by while shopping or meetup a friend on a cup of tea or coffee with Turkish delights.
