The ‘Loewe Tomato’ Meme Has Made It to Restaurant Menus | Eater
"At this Parisian restaurant, pastry designer Alina Prokopenko produced trompe l’oeil “tomatoes” as a dessert: small mounds of vanilla sponge cake layered with strawberry compote, praline, and tomato‑infused caramel, all shrouded in a glazed red ganache and finished with the real tomato leaves and stem to heighten the illusion. Eschewing molds, Prokopenko wrapped each piece in plastic film and pressed it into shape so that, as she puts it, “every tomato is different.” The dessert was explicitly inspired by the recent “Loewe tomato” fashion moment that blurs food, art, and couture." - Bettina Makalintal
