Just when we thought Soft Thunder Bakery and Coffee couldn’t make their pastry lineup any more tempting, they've dropped a brand-new flavor that'll have black sesame lovers running to their nearest branch. Meet the Double-Black Sesame Tart, a limited-time creation featuring bold sesame flavors layered inside a charcoal shell.

Released on July 10, 2026, the bakery’s newest flavor is packing not one but two layers of the nutty ingredient into a single pastry. The tart features a silky black sesame light crème layered over a rich black sesame egg custard, all housed inside a charcoal crispy shell that gives it a signature dark appearance. Described by the bakery as a “double-layer” black sesame bomb, it’s designed to deliver an intense sesame experience with every bite.

The launch marks a temporary farewell to a fan favorite, the Coffee Mochi Tart, which will be taking a short break while the new flavor is in the spotlight. Fans can breathe easy, though, as the bakery has confirmed that their popular coffee tart will be making its return in the future.

Since opening its first brick-and-mortar bakery in Kennedy Town in 2021 and new flagship in Wan Chai in 2023, Soft Thunder Bakery and Coffee has built a loyal following for its mouthwatering pastries, particularly its egg tarts and innovative seasonal specials.
