HOUSTON – Asma Gowher, CEO of TRIFLES Gourmet Desserts, first appeared on Houston Life in October 2023 with a unique take on the British dessert called trifle.
Focusing on French pastries from macarons to entremets and trifles, Gowher creates beautifully curated collections of desserts for any occasion - including Valentine’s and Galentine’s Day.
We asked Gowher to come back to Houston Life with her dessert collections that are not just sweet, but also interactive.
This Valentine’s Day, she showcased three fun options.
1. For the couples out there
She’ll bake you a Valentine-themed heart cake filled with white chocolate mousse, raspberry coulis, chocolate mousse, chocolate sponge cake, and dark chocolate glaze.
2. For the ladies celebrating Galentine’s Day
Gowher curated a Galentine Rendezvous box with seven desserts. In this box, she provides a set of instructions with activities you can do with your girlfriends. For instance, you can smash the dark chocolate truffle heart to heal the heart your ex broke. Or take it easy by piping caramel on the cheesecake, then sprinkling it with caramel popcorn. So, get your ride-or-die crew together and enjoy a sweet soiree with this rendezvous box.

3. For those celebrating the day of love solo
You can get a smaller version of the rendezvous box called Girl Dinner. This box includes a triple chocolate brownie, s’mores choux, and caramel cheesecake. Unlike the previous box, these desserts are already made with no activities. So, while everyone is celebrating the holiday with someone, you can treat yourself from the comfort of your own home.
For anyone interested, Gowher is offering Houston Life fans 10% off on these Valentine-themed desserts from now until this Sunday, February 11. Just enter the promo code ‘HL’ at checkout. Click here to go to the order page.
