Mango lava flows for summer at CODE

Mango lava flows for summer at CODE

CODE – Bangkok’s multi-branch Cafe of Dessert Enthusiasts – has Mango Lava Toast on its summer menu this month

CODE is popular with its Thai twists on bingsu, the Korean iced dessert, its Shibuya honey toast, its charcoal bread and its lava buns. 
The signature treat is Coconut Dream Bingsu, which can be ordered with lod chong (pandan-flavoured rice-flour droplets), coconut jelly, look chid (candied palm seed), shredded jackfruit and pandan-flavoured crumble. 
The toppings are presented separately on the side along with palm-sugar sauce, turning the bingsu into a modern take on ruam mit (sweet mixed treats in coconut milk with ice).
Thai Tea Lava Toast, meanwhile, combines Shibuya honey toast, charcoal bread and a lava bun. You get a slab of toast filled with melting Thai tea custard that oozes out like lava, served with whipped cream and vanilla ice cream.
Other tempting hot treats are Lava Croissant with a choice of Thai tea or Earl Grey tea and salted-egg-yolk filling, all dressed with vanilla crumble. Sizzling Roti (Bt165) is crispy thin crepe served on a hot pan with vanilla crumble, marshmallow and a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a choice of salted egg yolk, cocoa or Thai tea sauce.
Also popular is the Japanese-style shaved-ice dessert Kakigori. CODE offers it in five flavours – Thai tea, cocoa, pink milk, passionfruit and blueberry. The most popular is Thai tea, which is poured over the ice. Then the concoction is topped with fresh cream sauce and crunchy cocoa beans.
Blended coffees, iced teas, milkshakes and smoothies are also available. 
CODE has branches at the Jas Ram-Indra, Jas Urban Srinakarin, Mega Bangna, Seacon Square and Terminal 21. Check out the “CodeDessertCafe” page on Facebook.
