Flowwow and Bisou Special Dessert

Flowwow, a UAE-based gifting marketplace, has teamed up with fine-dining restaurant Bisou to create a special dessert for the UAE National Day. Inspired by the country’s heritage, the dessert features a delectable shell concealing a hidden pearl. Available from 25 November to 2 December, one lucky guest will find a golden pearl and win a stunning bouquet of 101 roses, thoughtfully arranged by Flowwow. The dessert, crafted by Bisou’s pastry chef Rodion Emelianov, pays tribute to the UAE’s pearl-diving past.

Guests can not only enjoy this limited-edition dessert at Bisou but also participate in a ruffle. The dessert will be available at Bisou for AED70.
