I have been to 2/3 Dolci 2 times. I think their gelato is really one of the best in town! So, when I heard they have the new caramel series before, of course I have to pay them a visit!Before me & my friends tried out the caramel cakes, gelato first is the way to go!!!!We chose 3 flavors: signature pistachio, peach & fig sorbet.Their pistachio gelato is still as good as heaven!! So rich & creamy!!! The peach gelato was very smooth & peachy. Just hoping some peach flesh would appear in it though

Their pistachio gelato is still as good as heaven!! So rich & creamy!!! The peach gelato was very smooth & peachy. Just hoping some peach flesh would appear in it though! The texture of the fig sorbet was interesting! There were real fig seeds in the gelato, which is so unexpected!
For the caramel series, The caramel chiffon cake looked just like their 'Very berry chiffon cake'. The chiffon cake was covered with a layer of caramel flavored cream with a chocolate art piece of top. The chiffon cake was light & spongy! However, the caramel cream wasn't in a strong caramel flavor. The caramel flavor was pretty subtle! It's still a nice cake, but I won't go for it the second time. The caramel flavor in the caramel cheesecake was a lot stronger compare to caramel chiffon cake. It wasn't too sweet or too heavy. It's just right amount of balance of caramel & cream cheese. It looked elegant & delicate with a white chocolate art piece on top.
After the gelato & the 2 caramel cakes, me & my friend seems still not satisfied! So, we ordered another cake, which I heard it's their signature cake as well! I want to try it last time!! The 8 layers was very clear & easy to identify. Well...you know! Some layer cakes appear to be meshed up all together & can't see which is which layers. But they did a really good job in layering this cake. The cake was alternated layers of sponge cakes, guava jelly, guava ganache, and guava mousse. It looked very pretty with red & pink colors. It tasted in strong guava flavor, but not too sour or too artificially sweet. No wonder it's their signature cake apart from the pistachio one.
Other Info. :
It's a good new to know that they finally opened 2nd branch at Festival Walk, Kowloon Tong! So much more convenient for people like me, who lives at Kowloon side. :D
