Fortitude Valley’s cocktail bar Nok Nok and boutique bakehouse Honey & Yolko have teamed up to create a multi-sensory dessert for Night Feast 2025 at Brisbane Powerhouse. The collaboration combines Nok Nok’s experimental cocktails with Honey & Yolko’s pastries, offering festival-goers a dish that blends multiple textures and flavours in a single hand-held treat.

At the centre of the collaboration is the Viral Dubai Chocolate Croissant x Chocolate Stout Ice Cream, a dish featuring a chocolate-lined croissant cone filled with pistachio cream and swirled with chocolate stout ice cream. It is finished with kataifi pastry and crushed pistachios. The combination of ingredients creates a mix of creamy, nutty, and crisp textures.
Night Feast
The collaboration is part of Night Feast, Brisbane Powerhouse’s annual after-dark festival, running from October 15 to November 9. Presented by American Express, Night Feast transforms the venue into a three-week event featuring food, art, and live entertainment.
More than 20 of Brisbane’s restaurants are participating this year, including both returning and new venues. The Nok Nok x Honey & Yolko dish is one of the offerings available to festival-goers. Attendees can sample cocktails from Nok Nok and pastries from Honey & Yolko in a single, combined experience.
The Collaboration
Nok Nok is a small, independent bar in Fortitude Valley known for experimenting with flavour combinations and presentation. The bar is run by a two-person team and offers an intimate environment for patrons.
Honey & Yolko is a boutique micro-bakehouse located on California Lane. It specialises in pastries and cakes, with a focus on texture, flavour, and presentation.
The two teams collaborated to create a dish that combines their respective areas of expertise. The Viral Dubai Chocolate Croissant x Chocolate Stout Ice Cream incorporates pastry, ice cream, and nuts to produce contrasting textures and flavours. It is served as a hand-held item, allowing festival visitors to experience both Nok Nok’s cocktails and Honey & Yolko’s pastries in one offering.
