The Maybourne Beverly Hills Launches A New Afternoon Tea

The Maybourne Beverly Hills[1] has launched Prêt-à-Portea: The Red Carpet Collection[2], a version of the legendary fashion tea from the hotel’s sister property in London, The Berkeley[3]. The fashion take on afternoon tea at The Maybourne Beverly Hills[4] turns celebrity fashion moments into edible art and features a curation of cakes that pay homage to iconic red carpet moments, from Björk’s famous swan dress by Marjan Pejoski to Jennifer Lopez’s green Versace[5] gown. Michelle Williams[6]’ saffron Vera Wang gown from the 2006 Academy Awards[7] is reimagined as a biscuit with lemon vanilla royal icing, evoking its flowing silhouette. Margot Robbie’s Chanel[8] dress from the 2021 Oscars appears as an Earl Grey mousse éclair dipped in a silver-lustered milk chocolate glaze. Guests can enjoy this glamorous tea experience crafted by pastry chef Brooke Martin, presented on Bernardaud[9] china, in the hotel’s Terrace Tearoom.
