About this dessert

The boldest dessert on the menu.

The Peanut Butter Bomb is built on one of the most reliable flavour combinations in Western dessert — chocolate and peanut butter. The pairing works because of complementary contrast: chocolate's bitter, slightly acidic cocoa notes set against peanut butter's roasted, fatty, salty-sweet character. Each component makes the other taste more like itself.

The format here is a chocolate shell — firm enough to hold its shape, thin enough to crack with a spoon — enclosing a peanut butter cream filling that is soft, sweet and intensely flavoured. The experience of breaking through the chocolate exterior to reach the cream inside is intentional: the textural contrast between the snap of the shell and the give of the filling is part of what makes this dessert memorable.

It is the most shareable of the three $8 signatures in terms of intensity — because the flavour is so rich, half a portion per person is genuinely satisfying. Two people sharing one Peanut Butter Bomb alongside a Milk Tea each is the best way to experience it. The tannins in the tea cut through the fat and reset the palate between bites, making the dessert taste less cloying and more balanced.

Important: this dessert contains peanuts and is not safe for anyone with a peanut allergy. Cross-contamination in the kitchen is also possible. Inform your server of any nut allergy before ordering.

FAQs

Peanut Butter Bomb — answered.

Is the Peanut Butter Bomb safe for nut allergies?

No — the Peanut Butter Bomb contains peanuts as a primary ingredient and is not safe for anyone with a peanut allergy. Cross-contamination with other tree nuts may also occur in the kitchen. If anyone at your table has a nut allergy, inform your server and avoid this dessert entirely. The NY Style Cheesecake and Ice Cream are nut-free alternatives.

Is the chocolate shell dark or milk chocolate?

The shell is typically made with dark or semi-sweet chocolate, which provides the slight bitterness that contrasts with the sweet peanut butter filling. The exact chocolate used may vary by location. If you have a preference, ask your server — some locations may use milk chocolate depending on their supplier.

Is the Peanut Butter Bomb served warm or cold?

The Peanut Butter Bomb is served at room temperature — the chocolate shell is firm but not refrigerator-cold, and the peanut butter cream filling is soft and smooth. It is not a warm dessert like the Lava Cookie. Eat it relatively quickly once plated — if it sits too long in a warm room, the filling can soften excessively.

Can I get this without the chocolate shell?

No — the chocolate shell is integral to the dessert format. The Peanut Butter Bomb is designed as a whole: shell plus filling, the contrast between them being the point. If you want a peanut butter dessert without the chocolate intensity, this is not the menu for substitutions.
