The cake shop provide like 20 different kinds of artisanal pastry , wide range of selection is sometimes a difficulties for me to choose since I am a cake fetish ! At the end ,I bought 7 pieces in once , so let's take a group photo first ! Look at that array of delightful colors , all are exquisite gems for gourmands ! It urge me to taste them all as quick as I can!
Berries and Macaron Tart
Berries and Macaron Tart filled up with fruity mixed berries , the raspberries and blueberries are still fresh and add a hit of sourness to the chocolate short - crust pastry bade . This dessert is an ephemeral work of art . The cake is decorated with finest ingredients, but the macarons is over sweet and lost it nutty crunch texture . Overall taste is above average , not too sweet with fruity sensation , however the general texture is a bit soft and soggy .
Earl grey Infusion
The Earl Grey Infusion is a new member of the cake team! Distinctive layers with chocolate mouse , earl grey paste mixed with caramel and the crunchy bites as the base . Create subtle sweetness contrasting combinations of the earl grey tea own mellowness . The texture is smooth , while have it with the bottom crunch , it add a bit sparks to the cakes , and complex its texture . What a harmonious pleasure !
Chocolate Mousse
Chocolate Mousse is simple yet hit the spotlight. Finest French chocolate in 70 percent pure coco are used to create such dense and mellow tastes . The mousse was blended thoroughly that will bring you to different levels , velvet smooth sense come first , then sweet savory with chocolate hint , after a while , bitter and mellowness stay in your mouth . This true french dessert are made in their own signature "ramequin " ( container ) . Invest effort in simple sweet delights .
The Strawberry Tart
The strawberry tart is a refreshment, big strawberries garnish on top with bright colors , not only a decent looking , but also aromatic. Strawberries are plump and juicy , match well with blended vanilla cream . All freshness are on a spanish almond short cut base . The base is buttery and nutty enough , all components are just in that proper proportion to create a graceful delicacy ! This french weekend tradition boost up the vitality during your enjoyment .
Blueberry cheese cake
Blueberry cheese cake are not impressed , ordinary but not traditional . Slow baking can't create it original texture and the cake is not in that dense cheesy flavors . The cake is more like sponge cake that it is not what a authentic cheese cake should be . I am disappointed with that extreme small portion in the price of 40 . From my point of view , this is certainly not a choice for cheese cake lovers !
Baileys Dome
Baileys Dome is really lovely with that mini macaron decoration . Look enchanting and tastes superb ! The Baileys Dome was set as the cake of the month by the server introduction .Chocolate brownie and Bailey's Creme brûlée were encased in a mouth -watering Bailey 's bavaroise . It's just so arousing and the texture surly moves you , all the ingredients strike a right balance , glazing in a refined architectural shape . A unique way to enjoy this soft delicious !
Chocolate Charlotte
Chocolate Charlotte build up with extensive chocolate layers ! Crunchy chocolate base , sponge cake , milk chocolate mouse and lady fingers are all in one bite ! Such fulfillment satisfy your max . The texture was smooth with rich dense chocolate melting core . Not that sweet actually as single origin chocolate are used to balance the bitterness and sweetness. All you can feel is a spoonful temptation ! This certainly recall your warm and sweet pleasant ! It's just excellent and such fruitful mixture is the high light of this meal .
