The Ivy launches limited-edition Shepherd’s Pie dessert this October

 Fans of The Ivy’s iconic Shepherd’s pie are in for a real (sweet) treat this autumn, as The Ivy Collection launches a limited-edition Shepherd’s Pie Dessert. Available from 4th to 25th October, the new, exclusive dessert will be available in restaurants nationwide* and will be bound to tantalise tastebuds and confound the senses - in the best way.

The Ivy Shepherd’s Pie has been a long-standing favourite on its menus, with thousands being served up to guests across the decades. Now, in a first for the restaurant collection, the iconic dish goes sweet.

Despite appearances, there’s not a single pea or potato in sight - every element has been crafted to mimic the classic dish in sweet form.

What’s in The Ivy’s Shepherd’s Pie Dessert?

• Fluffy carrot cake base

• Melting chocolate dome with a creamy chocolate ice cream centre

• Whipped cream “mash”, digestive biscuit crumb “mince”, and candied rosemary “peas”

• Served with warm chocolate sauce and a bottle of maple syrup “Worcester sauce”

Sean Burbidge, Executive Chef at The Ivy Collection said: “The Ivy Shepherd’s Pie has always been one of The Ivy’s most loved dishes, so we wanted to have some fun with it and surprise our guests in a way that still feels true to our heritage. By reimagining it as a dessert, we’ve taken the comfort and nostalgia people associate with the classic and given it a playful, seasonal twist. It’s indulgent, a little unexpected, and above all - delicious.”

 With availability limited for this exciting new dessert, guests are invited to book their table soon to avoid missing out.
