This winter, Pastry Chef Romina Peixoto is reimagining Sweet Graffiti as a celebratory Holiday Dessert Lab. Her ever-changing selection of holiday confections blends childhood nostalgia with street art playfulness and a range of flavor notes from all around the world.

Sweet Graffiti’s dessert menu for the holidays is incredibly dynamic, showcasing new flavors and textures each week.

- Cocoa Nib-Infused Apple Cider: Hot cider infused with cocoa nibs for a surprising chocolate-spice finish
Why Sweet Graffiti Is One of NYC’s Most Creative Bakeries This Season
Pastry Chef Romina Peixoto brings the same adventurous, globally-inspired artistry to her holiday desserts as her year-round menu.
Her Dessert Lab creations weave together childhood nostalgia (both Romina’s own Argentine holiday memories and classic American treats) with fine-dining pastry techniques like precision brûlées and high-quality chocolates.
Meanwhile, playful street art influences shine through in her confections’ vivid colors and unexpected forms, while their flavors draw inspiration from all around the world: citrus from Southeast Asia, Latin American chocolate, and warming winter spices from around the globe, among others.
Sweet Graffiti’s holiday dessert menu manages to celebrate the magic of the season while also embodying the energizing, inventive energy of NYC itself.
