Heavenly Desserts Preston will be one of the first restaurants to launch the franchise’s brand new brunch menu this week.
From Thursday (1 August), brunch will be available at the Cheapside eatery from 10am to 4.30pm, Monday to Sunday.
Savoury treats will be on the menu for the first time in the chain’s history, alongside a range of breakfast staples for sweet-toothed brunch lovers.
Savoury options will consist of loaded sourdough toast and bagels, spiced red pepper and tomato shakshuka, lamb bacon served with a croffle, and a vegetarian breakfast option.

Heavenly Desserts’ signature croffle – a combination of a croissant and a waffle – will also see a host of new savoury toppings including smoked salmon and scrambled egg, mushroom and Swiss cheese, and bacon and scrambled egg.
Those who prefer a sweet start to their day will be able to indulge in dishes including blueberry pancakes, berry French toast, caramelised biscuit and banana overnight oats, and spiced chai granola served with yoghurt and berries.
The brand’s range of sweet croffles will also be available on its brunch menu in chocolate and hazelnut, pistachio crunch, and strawberry passion fruit and vanilla cream.
Yousif Aslam, co-managing director of Heavenly Desserts, said: “After months of hard work from the entire head office team, we’re incredibly excited to be expanding into new taste territory with our brunch menu landing in selected stores this July.
“Brunch is a huge shift for us as a brand, but the introduction of savoury menu options was driven by our mission to consistently innovate and to maintain our presence as a trendsetter in the premium dessert dining category. It was also inspired by our goal to meet the growing demand for brunch within the global market, and to broaden our expertise in a new way.”
Heavenly Desserts’ brunch menu will fully cater to halal dietary requirements, with the majority of options suitable for vegetarians.
Drinks options will range from fresh juices to hot teas and coffees, with fresh new smoothies set to include healthy green and berry granola.
