Hong Kong’s Fullerton Ocean Park Hotel has unveiled a luxurious winter attraction, bringing the celebrated 32-layer chocolate cake from its Sydney sister property to the city, alongside a limited-edition Chocolate Artisan Afternoon Tea at the Lighthouse Lounge. Running from November 9 to December 31, 2026, the offerings include early bird discounts for those eager to indulge.
The 32-Layer Chocolate Cake: A Masterpiece from Sydney
Originally crafted by the pastry team at The Fullerton Hotel Sydney, this dessert quickly gained iconic status before debuting in Hong Kong. The cake consists of precisely 32 layers made with Valrhona chocolate, a premium French brand known for its depth and quality. The creation involves alternating Valrhona Hukambi 53% chocolate cream with coffee-soaked chocolate sponge, interspersed with Azelia chocolate cream that adds hazelnut and milky notes. To achieve the distinct layers, every two layers must be frozen before the next are added—a process repeated 16 times to ensure a clean slice and velvety texture.
A whole cake requires two days’ advance order and is priced at HKD 388. For those seeking a lighter option, a slice version at HKD 88 is exclusive to Lighthouse Lounge diners, with layers adjusted proportionally. An early bird discount of 20% is available for orders or dine-in before November 30, 2026, with vouchers valid for six months.
Chocolate Artisan Afternoon Tea: Artistry on a Plate
The winter afternoon tea celebrates Belgian chocolate culture, coinciding with the 2026 Hong Kong and Macau Belgian Week. Inspired by Princess Delphine of Saxe-Cobourg’s paintings, the hotel’s pastry team has transformed three of her artworks into edible chocolate decorations for the complimentary Belgian GODIVA hot chocolate, adding an artistic flourish.
The sweet lineup includes a mini 32-layer chocolate cake, 72% dark chocolate mousse, white chocolate ganache with pineapple and banana, and strawberry rhubarb ruby chocolate mousse. Savory selections feature smoked salmon cucumber tartare, foie gras mousse toast, and a choice of wagyu beef skewer, tiger shrimp mushroom vol-au-vent, or yellowfin tuna. Classic scones with homemade hazelnut chocolate spread round out the meal, all set against the tranquil backdrop of Hong Kong Island’s southern coastline.
Priced at HKD 798 for two persons (plus 10% service charge), the afternoon tea includes GODIVA hot chocolate, premium coffee, or JING teas. It is served daily from 3:00 PM to 5:30 PM.
How to Book and Secure Early Offers
Reservations for both the cake and afternoon tea can be made through the hotel’s website. The early bird promotion on the cake positions it as a thoughtful holiday gift or personal treat.
