「朱古力甜品祭」必試甜點：
純素黑朱古力香蕉麻糬撻、純素黑朱古力士多啤梨脆皮蛋糕
Pan Daily Bakery 名字中的Pan是日語中[パン]麵包的發音，從小便喜愛日本文化及烘焙的店主，希望能將日本的烘焙文化及職人精神帶來香港。小店主要使用日本進口食材， 全人手製作無添加的新鮮日式麵包及甜點。
店主覺得朱古力的獨特之處在於不同濃度的朱古力可以做出不同種類及風味的麵包及甜點，所以每次製作朱古力口味的產品都充滿驚喜及挑戰。
「朱古力甜品祭」必試甜點：
朱古力Custard牛奶軟包、朱古力紅桑子夾心可麗露、榛果朱古力脆皮費南雪
Frenchie pâtisserie 主打法式甜品，由店主一人主理，當中的招牌甜品定必是聖安娜蛋糕 (Saint Honoré)。 朱古力聖安娜蛋糕是傳統的法式甜品，因為製作過程繁複，坊間比較少見，但店主仍堅持每天新鮮製作，希望更多人認識這種甜品。
店主曾經在主打做朱古力甜品的公司工作過，發現朱古力有好多可能性，所以特別喜歡創作與朱古力相關的甜點。店舖用了好幾款的單品可可（Single origin cocoa，即是沒有經過混合、純單一產地的可可豆）製作甜品，每一款都各有不同的風味，將之配搭其他不同的食材更可以將單品可可提昇到另一個層次。
「朱古力甜品祭」必試甜點：
伯爵茶朱古力撻、黑朱古力saint honore、chocolate whisky saint honore
「麻糬才是甜品的主角」，店主相信麻糬除了樸素簡約的味道，亦代表柔韌自如、百搭而充滿變化，正正在逆境下療癒大家心靈。麻糬鳥希望保持這份初心，帶來最滿足的美味，おいしい ! ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ
朱古力與牛乳麻糬是完美的配合，牛奶的香甜味能點缀朱古力的甘味，令人有食完想再食的感覺！麻糬鳥希望係繁忙的生活中，能為客人送上一份能帶來愉快心情的可可麻糬！

榛子朱古力包餡片片麻糬、可可片片麻糬、薄荷朱古力片片麻糬、香蕉朱古力片片麻糬
Frolicbake為香港本地烘焙小店，主打毛巾卷蛋糕。店主嚴選各地優質食材，例如日本抹茶粉、法國朱古力等，同時採用低油少糖配方，希望讓客人能沒有負擔地享受甜點帶來的幸福感。
店主在是次「朱古力甜品祭」特別想透過自家甜品傳遞朱古力獨有的幸福及甜蜜給到訪的客人。因為店主是「薄朱控」，所以透露想私心地藉自家製「薄荷朱古力Oreo毛巾卷」找同好。 另外，夏天是芒果的季節，以朱古力配上時令水果，酸甜交織，超級match！

朱古力的不同濃度和產地 味道都會有分別，所以會利用不同配搭去做出不一樣風味的甜品。

❛ TA-DA! #worthabite ❜崇尚「GOOD FOOD GOOD MOOD」，除了着重甜品的品質及味道，他們的產品一個重要的元素 / 主題就是開心 / 快樂 他們會研究製作時興好味、新奇有趣、甚或是幸福回憶感滿滿的產品，希望可以將獨一無二的「味道」不時分享給每一位特別的「您」。
店主覺得朱古力就好似一種魔法，無需要用太多花巧的東西就可以令到任何年齡層的人都着迷，快樂同朱古力一樣都是這麼簡單的事。
