Latest Creation from Black Star Pastry

If you think you’ve seen all there is to see in Melbourne’s vibrant food scene, Black Star Pastry is back to challenge your palate. Renowned for their iconic Strawberry Watermelon Cake, the bakery’s newest creation, the Yuzu Meringue Croissant, offers a distinctive blend of citrus and sweetness.

Yuzu Meringue Croissant

Let’s get into the details. At the heart of this pastry marvel is yuzu crèmeux, a luscious, creamy filling that effortlessly takes the limelight. Infused with the citrus allure of yuzu, the crèmeux combines harmoniously with a subtle hint of white chocolate. Both elements create a medley of flavours, allowing each bite to sing a balance between citrus and sweetness.

A Crown of Meringue and Curd

But there’s more. To complete this masterpiece, a caramelised Italian meringue crowns the croissant, a touch that adds both texture and visual appeal. Sporadically adorning the meringue are small bulbs of yuzu curd, introducing additional bursts of citrus that make every mouthful an experience.

Why Yuzu?

Originating from East Asia, yuzu is a citrus fruit that has recently found its way into the hearts of Melbourne foodies. Its unique character brings an unmatched zest that elevates the pastry’s complexity, giving you a multidimensional flavour experience. Given the pastry’s Asian influence, it’s a welcome addition to the multicultural tapestry that is Melbourne’s culinary scene.
