Conrad Singapore – Honey Bee Happy Afternoon Tea [MEDIA INVITE]

There is nothing sweeter than Honey Bee Happy Afternoon Tea to brighten up your day. Available at Lobby Lounge, Conrad Centennial Singapore, until 15th September 2022.

The Honey Bee Afternoon Tea starts with a signature mocktail, a blend of honey, ginger, thyme and calamansi. A sweet and refreshing start to the afternoon tea.

Mocktail to Start
Soon after, the service staff brought out two tier stand, one level for sweet and another for savoury. The savoury starts with Bourbon Manuka Honey Barbecue Chicken Slider. The chicken is marinated with manuka honey, barbecue and mixed with apple cider pickle and mustard. Tasty and tender with a hint of honey in the chicken.

The Savoury & Sweet

Elderflower Honey Figs, Pear and Raisin Chutney Pincho is a nice blend between sweet and savoury. We like the fruity burst from the figs, which pair nicely with matcha cream cheese that can easily be mistaken for avocado cream cheese. Eucalyptus Honey Cucumber Ricotta Ikura, Buckwheat Blini look yummy, however, most of the flavour is covered by the ricotta.

The Savoury
Wild Honey, Cream Cheese Smoked Salmon and Dill Sandwich is not to be missed. A classic combo of smoked salmon and dill, bind by cream cheese and wild honey.

For the sweets, we start with Chia Seed Coconut Jelly and Coconut Ganache. The exterior is made from chocolate ganache and filled with chia seeds coconut jelly. It looks like mini coconut and the taste is a combination of chocolate and light coconut cream.

The Sweets

Avocado Cheesecake shaped in form of mini avocado, filled with mango and spirulina jelly. Tasted like mango flavour easter egg. Meanwhile, Acacia Thyme Honey Mango, can easily be mistaken for a mini lemon. Filled with hazelnut sponge, lemon curd and white chocolate mousse. The white chocolate mousse is a bit too sweet for my liking and I find the lemon is not strong enough to balance the white chocolate.

Lychee Collagen Mousse, filled with lychee compote and wild honey whip. This mini lychee is soft, smooth and creamy. The blend of the lychee compote and wild honey is spot on. Absolutely delicious.

Once we have cleared the sweet and savoury, the service staff will bring out the scones. Raisin scone and classic scone served with Strawberry Jam and Clotted Cream. This crispy and crumbly pastry provided a nice ending to the afternoon tea.

To accompany Honey Bee afternoon tea, I ordered the Jasmine Pearl tea. A delicate, flowery light tea.

Ronnefeldt Jasmine Pearl Tea
Overall, it was a nice afternoon tea inspired by selections of honey. The presentation of the sweets pastries this round is just awesome, like you are getting mini coconut, avocado, lemon and lychee on your plate. A must-try afternoon tea. Cheers!!
