Last week we ran a poll to decide which of our new sweet crêpes will make our summer menu. Between our Heritage Day special, the Peppermint Crisp, homemade caramel and artisanal vanilla ice cream (a very traditional South African delight!) and our new French creation, the Ferrero Rocher, Swan salted caramel and decadent Nutella… we have our winner! And here it is… introducing the Ferrero Rocher… coming very soon to a French crêperie near you ?? #swancafecapetown #capetown #capetowneats #capetowncafe #creperie #crepes #pancakes #crêpe #summermenu #frenchfood #frenchcuisine #crêpes #instafood #capetownmagazine #lovecapetown #capetowncrepes #swancafe #swancafect #frenchfood #parisstyle #loveyourwork #lovemyhood #capetowneastcity #buitenkant #harrington #dessert #capetowndessert #capetowncafe #nutella #ferrerorocher
