Homegrown bakery café, Tigerlily Patisserie, will release a line of limited-edition desserts on Saturday (Oct 1) in collaboration with Magnum.

Crafted by Pastry Chef of the Year World Gourmet Summit (WGS) 2022, Maxine Ngooi, the three desserts were inspired by the newly-launched Magnum Cookie Mix, which includes the Magnum Mini Chocolate & Crunchy Cookies and the Magnum Mini White Chocolate & Cookies.

Inspired by the local roadside ice cream sandwich, Chef Maxine’s Magnum Croissantwich ($8) is an elevated version which features Magnum’s new White Chocolate & Cookies slab wedged between a flaky U-shaped croissant, topped with a drizzle of chocolate sauce.

Chef Maxine personally recommends customers to eat it with their hands like how they would with a taco so as to “get a little bit of everything in one bite”.

Cookies & Cremeux

The Cookies & Cremeux ($12) was inspired by the classic Magnum ice cream – a thin chocolate shell that cracks and has crunchy bits on the outside.

The base features cookie chocolate cremeux encased in vanilla mousse and salted chocolate feuilletine, which is how Chef Maxine enjoys her cookies – with a slightly salty aftertaste.

It is then topped with a whipped chocolate chip ganache with a hidden brownie centre.

The dollop of cream is “meant to represent the cream in cookies and cream”.

The Magnum Cookie Melt ($8) is Chef Maxine’s way of “taking the cookies and cream flavour in a literal sense”. 

An ice-cold stick of Magnum’s Chocolate & Crunchy Cookies sitting on a warm, gooey chocolate chip cookie, this creation is a play of temperatures.

While the three desserts are available as à la carte orders, there’s also a bundle offering ($28) which includes one box of the Magnum Cookie Mix ice cream and all three desserts. The limited-edition Magnum x Tigerlily bundle is available from Oct 1 to 18.

Customers can pre-order via Tigerlily’s online store to purchase the limited-edition bundle from Oct 1 on a first-come, first-served basis.

Collection of the pre-order sets and à la carte orders are available for dine-in or takeaway at Tigerlily’s café from Oct 4 to 18.

Tigerlily Patisserie is located at 350 Joo Chiat Road, Singapore 427598. It is open from Tuesday to Sunday, from 9am to 5pm.
