This winter, Mumbai Express at The Westin Mumbai Powai Lake curates a season-led dessert experience that goes beyond a single ingredient, bringing together craftsmanship, comfort, and creativity. Mahabaleshwar Strawberry Story is a limited-time menu that celebrates the joy of the season through carefully crafted cakes, pastries, and plated desserts, designed for leisurely indulgence throughout the day.

Sourced at the peak of their season, Mahabaleshwar strawberries are prized for their natural sweetness, bright colour, and delicate aroma.

At Mumbai Express, these farm-fresh berries are thoughtfully transformed into an elegant selection of cakes and pastries that highlight both nostalgia and refined craftsmanship.

Sharing his inspiration behind the menu, Nelson Fernandes, Executive Pastry Chef at The Westin Mumbai Powai Lake, says:
“As winter settles in, Mumbai Express brings a taste of the hills to the city with a celebration of Mahabaleshwar’s seasonal strawberries. Handpicked at the peak of their freshness, these local favourites are known for their natural sweetness and vibrant flavour. Transformed into delicate strawberry cakes and pastries, each creation pays homage to the region that produces some of India’s finest strawberries. It’s a simple, nostalgic indulgence where farm-fresh produce meets thoughtful craftsmanship, inviting guests to savour the season, one bite at a time.”
