Gâteau Basque Trio
Dandelion Chocolate
Update: All batches are now sold out. Please consider our individual chocolate gâteaux or sign up for an email notification for future batches next year.
Our unique trio of gâteaux highlights single-origin chocolate (70% Camino Verde, Ecuador, one of our pastry kitchen’s favorites) and also fruit of the cacao tree, which we’ve gently simmered into a tangy, lightly sweet jam. For each creamy, cacao-forward filling, we’ve perfected a complementary pastry crust, yielding three versions (chocolate, gingerbread, and cacao fruit) of bean-to-bar deliciousness.
Lisa will bake these trios from our 16th Street kitchen in limited batches, carefully packing them in reusable hatboxes made with our patterned papers so all three arrive stacked and tied with a green bow. We will ship these trios on three dates only. Please select your preferred date when preordering:
| Batch 1 | Batch 2 | Batch 3 |

- Gingerbread: rich chocolate crust filled with 70% Camino Verde, Ecuador chocolate pastry cream infused with cinnamon, ginger, and other festive spices

Three Flavors
Chocolate
Our single-origin chocolate gâteau highlights the classically fudgy notes of 70% Camino Verde, Ecuador chocolate, encasing velvety chocolate pastry cream in a decadent chocolate crust.
Gingerbread
Rich with chocolate and warm holiday spices, this gâteau features smooth, spice-infused 70% Camino Verde, Ecuador chocolate pastry cream in a buttery Camino Verde, Ecuador chocolate crust.
Cacao Fruit
Sweet cacao-fruit pulp is gently simmered to create a delicate jam, then layered with silky vanilla-bean pastry cream and baked into a tender, light-chocolate crust.
A new favorite for the holidays
For months, Lisa Vega, our executive pastry chef, experimented with her unique spin on the classic Gâteau Basque. It’s buttery, slightly crispy, with a chocolate pastry crust and velvety Camino Verde chocolate filling. With a brownie-like crust and a fudgy middle, it defies categorization: it’s part pie, tart, and cookie.
These make for a special dessert course to share with the family, your pod, or a gift for someone you can’t be with this year. Each petite 6-inch cakes can remain at room temperature until serving and becomes even more decadent and flavorful after a few days. If you don’t plan on digging in immediately, we recommend placing them in the refrigerator until a couple of hours prior to serving.
These cakes are chocolate at its best, and as best-selling author and culinary expert, Dorie Greenspan, says:
"One of my all-time favorite cakes in my all-time favorite flavor. Lisa's Gateau Basque is soooo good."
