1. Burnt Truffle Ricotta Cheesecake
Dolcetto by Basilico
Just in time for Mother’s Day, the pastry team has launched Chef’s Playground as part of its #TakeRegentHome arm. This programme allows the team to craft limited-edition confections, starting with the burnt truffle ricotta cheesecake.
It’s decadence at its finest with a combination of cream cheese and ricotta seirass, a Piedmontese variety made with sheep and cow’s milk. When baked, it's less molten than your usual burnt cheesecakes but delivers the same rich and creamy sweetness. The chefs make the cake extra special by serving it with Norcia black truffles for a touch of earthiness. Only 30 cakes will be released each week, so do keep a lookout for the next delivery slots on Regent Singapore's Instagram account.
