To commemorate International Women’s Day (8 March), The Fullerton Hotel Singapore and The Fullerton Bay Hotel Singapore will be presenting the Purple Afternoon Tea, an annual initiative to contribute to fund-raising efforts for women’s empowerment.
As the official colour of International Women’s Day, purple symbolises justice and dignity and is historically associated with efforts to achieve gender equality.
Served from 1 to 31 March 2022, S$5 nett from the proceeds of each purple-hued Afternoon Tea set will be donated to United Women Singapore, a non-profit organisation that aims to advance gender equality and women's empowerment by promoting STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) for girls and advocacy on the prevention of domestic violence.
The Purple Afternoon Tea will be served at The Courtyard, located at The Fullerton Hotel Singapore (from S$51* per adult)and at The Landing Point, located at The Fullerton Bay Hotel Singapore (from S$60* per adult).
Executive Pastry Chef Siddharth Prabhu’s inspired creation — the dancing Violette(S$79 nett) — will also make its debut. Light and airy vanilla bean mousse sets the stage for the delicate flavours of almond frangipane, orange chestnut and cassis crémeux to shine, enlivened by ivory chocolate crunch for textural contrast. The Dancing Violette will be available throughout March 2022 for takeaway and delivery at The Fullerton Cake Boutique and online at shop.fullertonhotels.com.
At The Fullerton Bay Hotel Singapore, guests are invited to raise a toast to the occasion with a lilac cocktail: the Iron Lady(S$25*). Concocted with Brass Lion Butterfly Pea Gin, Silver Moon green tea, egg white, and perfumed with orange oil and a squeeze of lemon, the Iron Lady is in turn intoxicating and calming with notes of lavender, vanilla and citrus — perfect for pairing with the Purple Afternoon Tea set.
Elegantly presented on three tiers for dine-in, delivery and takeaway, the Purple Afternoon Tea set offers an ensemble of handcrafted creations adorned with purple accents.
Guests can look forward to free-flowing savouries infused with rich flavours from land and sea: Dill-cured Norwegian salmon paprika bagel with caviar and sour cream on paprika bagel; charred bay shrimp with Mary Rose sauce and grenadine-pickled pearl onion; hickory-smoked duck tartlet with hoisin mayo and violet flower; beetroot tartare wafer basket with double-smoked bacon and goat cheese; open-faced beef pastrami with sun-dried tomato, cornichon and sumac aioli; and telegraph cucumber wholemeal sandwich.
For dessert, the fragrant notes of blossoms, berries and citrus take centre-stage in Executive Pastry Chef Siddharth Prabhu’s creations: Mulberry choux; raspberry citrus tart; lavender financier; cassis vanilla cream mini cupcake; red velvet cake with mascarpone; and elderberry macaron.
The teatime experience is made complete with the quintessential classic scones and raisin scones served with fresh clotted cream and jam, as well as a fine selection of teas.
