Vive Cake Boutique opens fresh pop-up at Harbour City

Vive Cake Boutique has opened a three-month pop-up store at Harbour City’s Gateway Arcade. The store is timed to coincide with White Day, a traditional holiday in Japan where men return gifts to their sweethearts who gave them chocolate on Valentine’s Day.

The bakery’s founder Vivien Lau and her team have designed a White Day selection which will also be available in the company’s Central flagship store.

“Vive’s pop-up store in Harbour City is an idyllic location that embodies refinement and luxury,” says Lau. “Gourmands from around the world can explore our unique and new dessert sensations in a homely, inviting, and Insta-worthy environment.”

In addition to the cake creations and offers, Lau and her team have also designed memorabilia and treats for shoppers to take home, including a unicorn portable charger inspired by their signature Uni-Cone cake.

Vive Cake Boutique was launched online in 2014 with its first pop up opening at The Pulse the following year. The company now has two permanent boutiques with pink and sleek marble decor, in Lee Tung Street in Wan Chai and H Queen, Central’s lifestyle hub.
