Gossip for 2 is a fun dessert for chatterbox friends who love the idea of sharing dessert while also sharing news on a lazy Sunday afternoon after a crazy Saturday night. Inspired between the association between food and conversation, it is meant to encourage a deeper connection between friends in a fun and easy manner.
Designed by Julie Hinault and made by pastry chef Olivier Dessyn of Mille Feuille Bakery New York, the Gossip for 2 cake is available there for only $12. Conceived in France, it is made with almonds, coconut, chocolate mousse, pineapple and lime. The flavor is described as bitter, sweet and juicy. As noted by Psfk, "It is iced half in white and half yellow to visually represent that it’s meant to be shared."
