Lune x Koko Black Sydney World Chocolate Day Pop-Up

Overview

Sydney has Lune fever. In the lead-up to the world-renowned Melbourne bakery finally opening a pair of Sydney stores — one in Darlinghurst and another in Martin Place — excitement for the renowned croissants is at fever pitch. Now, Sydneysiders will be able to get their hands on the flaky baked goods for three days before the two official stores swing open their doors.

Lune Croissanterie has teamed up with Koko Black to unveil a limited-edition new croissant collaboration named The Belgian Truffle. Why? To celebrate World Chocolate Day on Friday, July 7. This decadent creation takes Lune's signature pastry and adds a gooey Koko Black cocoa frangipane and Guanaja fondant centre. It's also topped with tempered chocolate shards, salted cookie crumb, mascarpone chantilly and Koko Black Belgian truffles.

In Sydney, this delectable treat will be available at selected Koko Black stores, and at a special one-off Lune pop-up that's coming to the QVB for the weekend.

If you want to get your hands on a croissant, Friday, July 7–Sunday, July 9 are the dates to mark down in your diary. You can either head to the Lune pop-up in the QVB, or Koko Black's stores at Westfield Pitt Street, The Strand Arcade and David Jones Bondi Junction.

These pastries are set to be in high demand, so it's best to head down early to avoid disappointment. The Strand, Westfield Sydney and the QVB stores will all open at 8am on Friday, and 9am on Saturday and Sunday. Over at the Bondi Junction outpost, it'll open at 9.30am on Friday, 9am on Saturday and 10am on Sunday.
