ABOUT US

YASMINE { PATISSERIES ORIENTALES }
Sweets play an important role in North African culture. Whenever you have guests, family or friends it is traditional to serve a selection of home made sweets with tea or coffee.

Yasmine has been making these her whole life, from helping her mother growing up to cooking for her own family. So why not share this tradition with Hong Kong.

How would I place an order? 
* Simply have a look at our MENU and choose a selection of the sweets that most tempt you. We have a minimum order of 10 of each type. (as these take a lot of time and care to prepare)

* Email us your selection, we will then confirm the price and wether required timing will be possible.
We should have you order ready in 48Hrs. We can arrange delivery (depending on your order size) or you may come and pick them up from us in Stanley.



NORTH AFRICAN DELIGHTS

FRESHLY MADE TO ORDER
Throwing a dinner party and need an original idea for desert? Organising a baby shower? Or simply having friends over for tea.. These are a delicious way of bringing a taste of Maghreb to your home. 

Yasmine makes the sweets to order, so these can then be frozen if you want an emergency stash in the freezer.  


Choose from delicious ' Cornes de Gazelles' a popular treat made with a filling of almonds, or the ever popular 'Cigars' a light pastry, filled with almonds and coated in honey, perfect for dipping into your morning coffee.
