1️⃣ 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧
Every flavour begins with the authentic Bordeaux method - copper moulds, beeswax lining, and a rested batter for that signature dark, caramelised crust with a tender, melt-in-your-mouth centre. This is the foundation that gives every PMFT canelé its signature balance of crispness and creaminess.
2️⃣ 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲
I don’t create flavours randomly - each one is rooted in a memory, a season, or a feeling I want you to experience with every bite.
• 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐟𝐟𝐥𝐞 reflects nature’s quiet luxury - earthy, rare, and discovered deep within the forest floor.
• 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐒𝐞𝐬𝐚𝐦𝐞 pays homage to tang yuan, a comforting Asian dessert symbolising reunion, warmth, and togetherness.
• 𝐔𝐛𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐮𝐭 was born during Perth’s jacaranda season - when the streets turn purple and I wanted a flavour that felt just as dreamy.
• “𝐋𝐮𝐜𝐤𝐲” 𝐎𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞 draws from Chinese New Year traditions, where mandarins (橘子 júzi) are gifted as symbols of good fortune because jú (橘) sounds like jí (吉), meaning luck.
3️⃣ 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡 (𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲)
No shortcuts, ever. I handcraft every filling - from ube halaya to raspberry lychee rose jam - so the flavour isn’t just added… it lives in the heart of the canelé.
4️⃣ 𝐓𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞
Every test batch goes through one question: does the flavour truly honour the ingredient’s soul? If it doesn’t showcase its full profile - the richness of truffle, the vibrant orange colour and spices of Thai tea, or the earthiness of matcha - it’s not ready.
5️⃣ 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐬𝐲𝐦𝐩𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐲
When crunchiness, honeycomb structure, aroma, and story all align - that’s when it officially earns a place in the PMFT flavour lineup.
Now that you know how the magic happens… it’s time to experience it for yourself 😉
