The Fullerton Hotels Singapore has partnered with Tarte by Cheryl Koh to launch the Fullerton x Tarte collection from 1 February to 31 July 2021, a divine assortment of artisanal tarts crafted by Cheryl Koh, Chef-founder of Tarte and award-winning Pastry Chef of 3 Michelin-starred restaurant, Les Amis, concepts under the Les Amis Group.
Baked from scratch each morning using only the best available ingredients, the Fullerton x Tarte collection brings Chef Koh’s well-regarded pastry expertise to the elegant and iconic setting of The Fullerton Hotels Singapore. Showcasing her refined sensibility for presentation and delight, the stunning assortment has been carefully curated to deliver sublime flavours in the form of aesthetically delightful pâtisserie, promising an impeccable experience for one’s eyes and palate alike.
“At The Fullerton Hotels Singapore, we are always seeking new ways and opportunities to enrich our guests’ experiences, turning everyday moments into extraordinary memories by injecting that special touch of wonder. There are few pleasures more wonderful, yet simple, than indulging in a meticulously handcrafted pastry; to slow down and enjoy the moment with each bite, or share the joy with those dear to us. We are delighted to partner with Tarte by Cheryl Koh to bring this exquisite experience to life in the timeless setting of our hotels – a celebration of some of the finest in culinary talent and hospitality that Singapore has to offer,” said Cavaliere Giovanni Viterale, General Manager of The Fullerton Hotels and Resorts.
This partnership will not be the first culinary encounter between Chef Koh and The Fullerton Hotels Singapore. Back in 2007, Chef Koh returned from Paris for the year-end Christmas and New Year holidays and decided to work a stint in the pastry kitchen of The Fullerton Hotel Singapore during the festive season – the kitchen’s busiest time of the year.
“We are delighted to work with Fullerton for this unique collaboration. This exclusive collection of our tarts is inspired by the rich history and heritage of the Fullerton buildings, bringing together high-quality seasonal ingredients with a touch of local flavours. With our shared philosophy for instilling moments of joy and perfection through sheer dedication, innovation and an unwavering focus on quality, I am pleased to bring the Tarte experience to these iconic landmarks,” commented Chef Cheryl Koh, Tarte.
The limited-edition Fullerton x Tarte collection features six flavours, comprising of three Tarte classics alongside three new Fullerton-inspired flavours, specially created by Chef Koh for this collaboration and available exclusively at the Fullerton Hotels Singapore. Ideal as accompaniments for afternoon tea or delightful Lunar New Year or Valentine’s Day gifts, the tarts are available for dine-in or takeaway.
