Paris Baguette and Lavazza, an Italian coffee company, have partnered with Yolanda Gampp, the "Queen of Cakes," judge on FOX's "Crime Scene Kitchen" and co-founder of How To Cake It, a baking education brand, to create a limited-time menu of baked and brewed goods.

They include:

• Drop Shot Bomboloni: A vanilla bean custard-filled pastry decorated to mimic a tennis ball featuring a combination of flavors and textures with icing in tennis ball green with a white lace design.

• Courtside Coconut Oat Milk Nitro Latte: A beverage crafted with Lavazza coffee and coconut oat milk.

"Yolanda's culinary expertise and passion for creating unforgettable delights perfectly aligns with our brand's commitment to excellence. We believe this collaboration will provide an unrivaled opportunity for our guests to immerse themselves in an unforgettable experience that merges the world of sports and impeccable craftsmanship."
