This Easter, Pan Pacific Singapore has lined up a series of activities and eatables to fill your weekend with endless treats.
Easter Goodies at Pacific Marketplace (1 to 31 March 2013)
Hot Cross Buns ($3 per piece)
The Hot Cross Bun reminds me of the Christmas Stollen cake with the fragrance of cinnamon and speckles of raisins –but this is a lighter version with a hint of citrus.
Easter Chocolate Egg ($18 for 150g)
What’s Easter without eggs? You needn’t dye or paint chicken eggs by hand –this delicious substitute will win the hearts of many.
Chocolate Smiling Bunny ($8.50 for 60g, $22 for 230g)
The Chocolate Smiling Bunny takes no effort to brighten up someone’s day –the reasons are obvious. Cute, yummy, chocolaty –what’s not to love?
Surprise your loved ones this Easter and grab them as gifts before they’re all sold out! If you manage to chance upon pastry chefs working on the chocolate creations at the Marketplace, witness the tempering and embellishing of chocolates by meticulous hands.
Simnel Cake ($55 for 1kg)
The Simnel Cake is a rich, dense and zesty fruit cake with a high ratio of fruit to cake, covered in marzipan, which is essentially a sweet, yellowish paste of ground almonds, sugar and egg whites.
“Easter Trio” Cocktail at Atrium (1 to 31 March 2013)
Enter The Dragon Mocktail (from the regular menu at the Atrium)
The Atrium is one of the nicest places to chill out in the vicinity, much attributed by the seductively designed “lantern-inspired” pods that provide a private and cosy spot for drinks and intimate conversations.
Their award winning mocktail, Enter The Dragon, is a must try. It’s minty, fruity and citrusy –perfect for non-alcohol drinkers.
“Easter Trio” Cocktail ($22++)
Egg 1: Vodka, Midori, Pineapple juice
Egg 2: Gin, Velvet Falernum, Lemon Juice
Egg 3: Malibu, Blue Curacao, Passionfruit Juice
A specially concocted range of cocktails steal the show this Easter –three distinctively different cocktails are poured into eggshells, and set atop shot glasses filled with dry ice for a smoky dramatic effect.
Easter Egg Hunt and Easter Bunny Appearance (31 March 2013)
Kids are not left out (of course); “egg-citing” activities include Easter Egg Hunt and Easter Bunny Appearance.
Join the Easter Egg Hunt at Poolside () at 1.30pm, or try to catch the Easter Bunny Mascot as he hops his way around the hotel giving out chocolate eggs between 12pm to 3pm.
