The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming on September 17th. In addition to family reunions, it is also an important festival for traditional gift-giving. The "French Handmade Desserts in the Late Night" (hereinafter referred to as Deep France) Mid-Autumn Festival gift box is coming this year, launching a blockbuster project that fans look forward to every year. In 2024, a new "Moonlight Impression" top gift box will be launched, with as many as 16 classic French delicious pastries, plus a Geisha recipe filter bag, which is worth savoring and satisfying at once!

Shenfa's "Moonlight Impression" top-level gift box is coming! 16 kinds of cakes + geisha fragrance

Shenfa's "Mid-Autumn Moon Night Impression" top-level gift box does not use the brand's usual indigo color. Instead, it uses a variety of deep blue and gold layers to render the forest night and moonlight. The artistic sense of an Impressionist canvas is fascinating! The gift box contains 16 types of room temperature pastries, including financiers, madeleines, layer cakes, pound cakes, meringues, Breton shortbread and cream mille-feuille. In addition to being true to the classic original flavor, there are also creative versions that incorporate wine-stained dried fruits and ground tea powder, and paired with a Geisha recipe filter bag tailored for you by the famous roasting bean shop Da Vinci Coffee, bringing infinite fun to the dessert time of Mid-Autumn Festival reunion.

Gift box feature 1: 7 cm square baking pan for individual baking, suitable for cutting and sharing

Bringing a better consumer experience each time is the core of the design of the Shenzhen-France Mid-Autumn Festival gift box. Founder Rick said that the pound cake in this year's gift box will not be sliced ​​and packaged in batches, but will be baked individually in a 7 cm square baking pan. Adjusting the shape and quantity will make it more suitable for people to share.

Gift box feature 2: Dried fruits are soaked first, and the bite is sweet and chewy

The new version of the citrus nut biscuits also has a more uniform texture. Founder Rick said: "Because some customers complained that the dried fruits in the biscuits were too hard, the dried fruits this year were soaked first, and the bite is sweet and chewy."

Gift box feature three: Local tea powder technology assists in creating a new product flavor curve

Shenfa also transforms local customs into desserts and collects them into gift boxes. Taiwanese tea is internationally famous, but it is not easy to fully integrate the fragrance of tea into desserts. Founder Rick continues to pay attention to local technology that can grind good tea into fine powder, and replaces tea soup with tea powder and incorporates it into cake batter and cream frosting to make new products such as Oriental Beauty Grapefruit Sandwich Cake and Oolong Tea Cream Pipe Cookies with rich tea fragrance and thick flavor without bitterness.

Gift box feature 4: dessert combined with coffee elements, highly popular and unbeatable

Desserts that combine coffee elements have always had loyal fans. The French pastry chef drew inspiration from the acclaimed seasonal items and added coffee flavor to Madeleine and Financier, making these two classic desserts filled with caramelized butter and almond flavors more attractive.

Fig Coffee Madeleine is made with ground coffee and mild Madagascar cinnamon, with wine-soaked dried figs in the middle. It has a rich aroma that fills your nose with rich variations.

How to transform a caramel macchiato into a fiorentina? Founder Rick said that Italian coffee, milk and caramel sauce are the three elements of caramel macchiato. In order to prevent the nutty aroma of caramelized cream in the traditional recipe from overshadowing the milky aroma, this version specially replaces the caramelized cream with an appropriate amount of melted cream. The taste adheres to the principle of not being too fluffy and having a bit of chewiness. If you taste it carefully, you will really have the illusion of "sipping" a caramel macchiato.

The "Moonlit Night Impression" gift box includes not only desserts with distinctive flavors that combine the aroma of tea and coffee, but also pound cakes that are mellow in flavor and suitable for all ages.

Gift box feature 5: warm pound cake, dense texture, suitable for all ages

In addition to the desserts with distinctive flavors that combine the aroma of tea and coffee, the "Moonlit Night Impression" gift box also includes pound cakes with a mellow taste that are suitable for all ages. For example, the solid caramel hazelnut pound cake is soft and smooth with the rich sweetness of wood-roasted brown sugar, rum and hazelnut paste, and the finishing touch of walnuts and raisins makes it more delicious the more you chew it. The sanjit pound cake baked with a large amount of sanjit juice and shredded peel is fragrant, sweet but not greasy, and makes you feel happy when eating it. There are also small items such as cream mille-feuille and Breton shortbread made with AOP certified fermented butter. They have a strong milky aroma and a crispy texture, suitable for people who like simple deliciousness.

Gift box feature 6: Geisha recipe filter bag, Da Vinci Coffee cross-produced

In response to this year's creative theme of incorporating coffee into desserts, founder Rick invited his good friend, Da Vinci Coffee founder Cai Zhiyu, to customize two Geisha recipe filter bags for the "Moonlight Impression" gift box. Moonlight Serenade is a combination of lightly roasted Geisha beans from Ethiopia and Colombia. It has multi-layered fruit aromas such as citrus, lemon, peach, etc. in the front part, with a long green tea aroma aftertaste and charming taste transition. Yeyan is a blend of Ethiopian coffee beans with various roasting degrees. You can first taste the bold and strong floral and fruity aroma, followed by a sweet cocoa aftertaste. Paired with Deep French desserts, a rich flavor spectrum is stirred in the mouth, and the support of big names makes the Deep French "Moonlight Impression" gift box unique and worth tasting!

The new brand "Sen Ye Bread & Coffee" will be launched in mid-August

Another good news is that the long-awaited new brand "Morning Night Bread & Coffee" of "French Handmade Desserts in the Late Night" will finally meet consumers in the East District of Taipei in mid-August. Because all products in the store are 100% made with France's top-grade E'chiré Butter, "Morning Night Bread & Coffee" is expected to be the first pastry store in Taiwan to obtain the E'chiré Butter certification. At that time, the store will also launch a variety of co-branded products. Dessert and cream lovers, please stay tuned.
