Paul Lafayet has always been on the "to try list" but somehow it has taken my sister and I a few years to get to it. Then, this night, my sister surprised the family by bringing back 4 of these goodies afterwork ! The lucky 4 that were brought back home to enter into our stomaches by the order that went they went in were : Chocolate Gold Dust Heart, Matcha Cremoso, Bailey’s Dome & Crème Brûlée.Chocolate Gold Dust Heart: I had no idea what to expect from this and thought that it would taste r
The lucky 4 that were brought back home to enter into our stomaches by the order that went they went in were : Chocolate Gold Dust Heart, Matcha Cremoso, Bailey’s Dome & Crème Brûlée.
Chocolate Gold Dust Heart: I had no idea what to expect from this and thought that it would taste really artificial due to the red colouring. However, I WAS WRONG! This was my favourite!Surprisingly, the outside was crunchy and didn't taste sugary like how icing can be sometimes. Then, the chocolate mousse inside was rich and creamy. This heart truely got to my heart!
Matcha Cremoso: This one was smooth and creamy as well. Maybe because everything with matcha kinda tastes the same to me so this wasn't too exciting. Also, I thought it tasted alright but it had a weird aftertaste. This was my aunt's favourite.
Bailey’s Dome: Can anything with Bailey's be bad? Ha! This one too had smooth, creamy mousse inside that sent you to heaven for a while. You could definately taste the Bailey's so if you're a Bailey's fan, you'd like this for sure. This was my sister's favourite.
Crème Brûlée: Last but not least, this came in a Paul Lafayet signature ramequin that you got to keep. Yeah! It's so pretty too and it looks well made! My sister said that the staff told her that this had to sit for 45 mins before eating. I wonder why though. Anyways, the custard was smooth but a little too sweet. Nonetheless, it was good!
Overall, everything was really good but they were all on the sweeter side. Also, maybe because they were all mousse cakes so they all had the same texture. Final Verdict:
What should I try next time?? Will be back for sure for this deliciousness.
