Spread the love

Australian passengers travelling with Emirates will be treated to a memorable travel experience for Valentine’s Day. The airline will serve 40 unique Valentine’s Day themed desserts and treats on board and across its network of lounges spread over six continents.

To celebrate the season of love, Emirates’ chefs have created Valentine’s Day desserts for most of its 41 lounges worldwide from 13-15 February. In Australia, lounge guests in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth will be served heart-shaped mud cakes.

Across the global route network, culinary creations include an orange-ginger panna cotta served with berries and pistachios in Hamburg; heart-shaped shortcake served with fresh strawberries and whipped cream in Cape Town; Chocolate and Raspberry petit fours in Auckland; a chocolate St Valentine’s cake in Narita; and chocolate-covered strawberries sprinkled with coconut in the lounges in the USA.

Australian passengers travelling through Dubai will also be treated to more desserts, with the seven Emirates lounges also putting on a full Valentine’s spread from 13-15 February. Frequent flyers can enjoy a champagne treat with the lively and generous notes of Moet & Chandon Rosé ImpérialThis will be accompanied by a selection of Valentine’s inspired cakes and desserts including a passion fruit cake with raspberry, red velvet cake and red velvet ice cream. Coffee lovers can also look for three Valentine’s Day coffee infusions by Coffee Planet – rose kissed mocha, orange crush latte or a white latte mocha.

Onboard meals will be seasoned with a touch of romance to complement the regionally inspired cuisine. On Valentine’s Day itself, Emirates will serve a special selection of desserts on longer flights across its network. In First and Business Class, customers can end their meals on a sweet note with a heart-shaped passion fruit cake.
