Cancel the diet: There’s a massive Dessert Festival happening in Cork

YAASS.
If dessert is your favourite part of any meal, make sure you’re in town from July 23rd to 29th.
Cork restaurants, cafes, bakeries, pubs and hotels will be pulling out all the stops to take part in Ireland’s first ever national Dessert Festival.
Leeside venues will be joining donut shops, ice cream parlours, crêperies, chocolatiers and milkshake makers all over the country to show off their skills with everything sugary.
It’s like a dream come true.
Cork’s favourite treat spots will be engaging in a celebration of all things dessert-related for the week, hosting pop-ups, tasting events, ‘man versus food’ challenges and new menu additions.
Businesses can get involved in the fun by registering here, with the full list of mouthwatering events due to be released in the weeks before the festival.
We’re already planning a cheat day (or three).
