Chinese New Year Celebrations at The Baker & The Bottleman
NEW PASTRY LAUNCHES AT THE BAKERY
Launching from 1st January, The Baker & The Bottleman introduces a series of new pastries by Head Baker Helene Ng and team that blend classic French technique with nostalgic Asian flavours and comforting textures.
- Strawberry Hojicha Puff (HK$30 per piece)
Cross-laminated AOP croissant pastry baked in a ring mould, filled with earthy hojicha cream and sweet, floral strawberry compote, finished with hojicha cream, fresh strawberry, and a dusting of hojicha powder.
- Peanut Mochi Cookie (HK$30 per piece)
Inspired by the Chinese dessert Tong But Lut, this peanut butter cookie wraps around a soft mochi centre, coated with chopped peanuts, sesame, and desiccated coconut. Slightly crisp at the edges, soft and chewy within.
- Jar Choy Croissant (HK$35 per piece)
A savoury croissant wrapped around minced pork and jar choy filling, seasoned with garlic, shallots, and soy sauce, topped with sesame seeds and baked until golden.

A bakery adaptation of a restaurant favourite, featuring puff pastry layered with sliced ham, Comté cheese, and béchamel, baked until rich and gooey.
LUNAR NEW YEAR BAKERY SPECIALS IN COLLABORATION WITH A SPARK OF MADNESS
To mark the Lunar New Year, The Baker & The Bottleman collaborates with A Spark of Madness, the Hong Kong–based cookbook and condiment brand founded by Simran Savlani, known for its bold balance of sugar, spice, and salt. Spark Store products are handmade in Hong Kong, vegetarian-friendly, and preservative-free, bringing layered, umami-driven flavours to both Asian and Western dishes.
Available retail-only at the bakery from mid-January through the Lunar New Year period, the collaboration introduces three limited-edition items:
- Crispy Chili & Orange Cookie (HK$35 per piece)
A fragrant orange-zested sugar cookie rippled with chili crispy caramel made using Spark’s Crispy Chili Oil, offering a sweet, savoury, and gently spicy finish.
