Valérie店主的态度都很亲切，独力经营生意，又要整饼，又要顾及物流送货。知道开一间网上饼店也绝非易事，Carly更加欣赏靠一双手闯天下的年轻人，特别是甜品师傅。同样是朱古力，鸡蛋，糖，牛奶的几种基本元素，在有心人手中，平凡亦会显见不平凡。我们吉碟帮亲爱的Lorling生日将至，差不多吃遍香港有名甜品蛋糕店的Carly苦恼了良久，要怎样挑一个不是慕丝的黑朱古力蛋糕给Lorling，另一方面，也要形合不嗜甜的Gobay，蛋糕必须重质又重量。在不少杂志见过Valérie Pastry被专访的报道，Carly与Lorling都「心郁郁」（心动）想试很久，最后订了一个五吋蛋糕，另外特意订了四个迷你蛋糕，像Gobay说道，『众星伴月』的为我们的寿星女贺生辰。
Another birthday celebration for our Gang member – our beloved photo designer Lorling What is better than having one alluring beautifully decorated birthday cake plus mini ones on the side to satisfy Lorling’s sweet tooth, Carly knew that she didn't make a wrong decision.
【CocoCoffee 可可咖啡八层蛋糕| 5 inch cake HKD223】Very appealing and glamorous just by sight as you see coffee brittles and gold glittered white chocolate decor garnished the cake very professionally with gold patterned chocolate thins around the corners. Lorling was a fan of dark chocolate yet does not like mousse cakes in general, this did give Carly quite a headache as dark chocolate cakes are often in mousse form. Valérie’s CocoCoffee cake has layers of coffee cream and dark chocolate sponge cake altering evenly, finishing it off with a layer of crunchy chocolate flaky crisp as the cake base. Everyone acclaimed this as this was not sweet and very rich and dense in coffee aroma. Dark chocolate sponge cake was tad too dry, creating this huge contrast compared to the buttery coffee cream, the light flaky crunch highlighted the cake, often Carly’s favorite part. Petite Amanda’s Plaisir Sucré is still by far the best in town in terms of opera-like pastry for its flawless balance and angelic textural crunchiness & creaminess combo of hazelnut, milk chocolate ganache, and chocolate crunch. Valérie’s CocoCoffee may not be the best in town, yet for its price and well-decorated garnishment, Carly did not complain further.
Valerie自家制的八层蛋糕是传统经典Opera cake的变奏版，用上牛油状的咖啡慕丝和黑朱古力雪芳蛋糕，一层夹一层的形成口感上的强烈对比，咖啡慕丝浓滑带点厚实，朱古力雪芳蛋糕则太干身。咖啡味特别香浓，众人都盛赞整体味道不太甜，就算是男士们亦吃得津津有味。装饰亮丽精致不在话下，加上Lorling不喜欢吃慕丝的关系，这款生日蛋糕就正合我们心意，不是一般常见软滑的忌廉。只是略嫌海绵蛋糕偏干。朱古力味也不太突出，偏淡，Carly猜想应该不是用上高级的Valrhona朱古力。5吋蛋糕，价钱很公道，这蛋糕质素与味道虽然不及agnès b. Café， Petite Amanda或Tony Wong，但绝对值得一试。看得出店主非常用心的制作，诚意十足，值得一赞。
【Salute to Rocher 向金莎致敬|HKD36】众人一看见dome圆顶形状的蛋糕就想知道金色的包装纸金光闪闪，能否吃下肚。哈哈，吃这一个要反转蛋糕徒手拆掉金色手工纸，就会看见貌似金莎的放大版蛋糕。吃一口，云喱拿慕丝软滑轻盈，看见点点的新鲜云喱拿豆种子，云喱拿味不重，配上中间流心的榛子ganache，整体都太甜了。但终究榛子朱古力这配搭始终是魅力没法挡，很邪恶呢。
Everyone glared at the golden packaging wrapped around the dome shaped cake, wondering if it was edible. Luckily no one dared to try as you will have to flip around the cake to remove the golden foil to reveal the enlarged version of Rocher chocolate cake, velvety and over-the-top smooth vanilla mousse was scrumptious, just that the relatively watery hazelnut paste was a bit overly sugary. *munch* a nutty roasted hazelnut is hidden in the cake to complete the cravings for dessert lovers out there who loves Rocher to the end of the world.
【Crunchy Lemon 柠檬脆脆|HKD30】Refreshing and fruity pastry! Gobay liked this most out of all the cakes for its energizing tutti-fruity lemon zest and relatively lighter version of cream mousse, it was a bit bouncy compared to the rest of the cakes. White chocolate coated corn flakes were crunchy and crispy, mildly sweetened without going over-the-top. Lorling even noticed that the lemon cake was decorated like a cat’s paw, very lovable and delightful summery cake indeed!
清甜之选，柠檬慕丝有些微Q弹的口感，不是一般朱古力或云喱拿的流心软滑状，而且不会过甜，带点微酸，亦很讨好。Lorling留意到蛋糕面的装饰似是猫爪的图样，很可爱！最难以抗拒的是铺在最底层的脆脆，甜甜的白朱古力粟米片，吃完一口又一口，细过掌心、迷你的柠檬脆脆蛋糕极速地消失于无形！
【Passion Fruit Valrhona 64% 热情果香浓巧克力慕丝|HKD30】Valrhona dark chocolate glazed dome shape cake was very rich and dense in chocolate flavor, the only thing that could have been improved is the passion fruit jelly was a bit too solid creating this rather vast contrast on the palate when you take a bite into the smooth mousse, the jelly was separated apart, falling out from the dome, not the most ideal form of filling. Passion fruit scent was rather pungent; if you are not a great fan of passion fruit, feel free to opt for other chocolate-themed cakes from Valérie.
Dome圆顶形的朱古力蛋糕真的吃不少，Valérie的黑朱古力慕丝味浓，丰盈香滑，不算太甜，是中上质素的巧克力慕丝，第一口已经尝到果味突出的热情果甜蜜。唯一美中不足的是中间的热情果啫喱有点过实，与外层香滑的朱古力慕丝相对上有太强烈的对比，不太合得来。吃到中间的时候，果冻还掉了出来，与慕丝蛋糕分离了。
【Midori Mont Blanc 栗子猫猫|HKD35】非常可爱的造型，Carly不知道从何时开始喜欢上猫猫，诚然，Carly妈妈常说女儿性格像猫，心情不好的时候，怎么找都找不著，「无晒影」。有美食的时候或者肚子饿的时候，就自然会「浦头」。大家想知多点，这只Midori绿子猫猫在facebook上有自己的粉丝专页，真实的猫猫超萌，非常可爱！独爱栗子蛋糕的Carly，觉得Valérie的栗子蓉打得颇出色，软滑香浓，可惜味道有点偏甜。Carly吃过很多Mont Blanc，至今仍是觉得Passion by Gerard Dubois 的Passion Fruit Mont Blanc，配搭做得出色，味道亦有惊喜，大家不防一试。Valérie的栗子蛋糕则是造型和质感取胜，配上内里带点白朱古力的慕丝，软滑甜蜜，加上实脆的饼底，整体算不俗。
Midori cat has its own fanpage on Facebook and this has been so far the cutest Mont Blanc Carly has ever had, even though the real Midori cat is cuter Carly’s mom often complains that her daughter has a “cat temper”, she hides and scowls away when she’s in a bad mood, and only when she needs good food for hungry tummy, then she will curl up next to you and go purring. Mont Blanc has to be one of Carly’s favorite and she is still in search of the best chestnut based dessert in Hong Kong. Valerie’s Mont Blanc was ultra creamy smooth and exceptionally delicate, though tad sweet, the cream mousse was profoundly smooth on the interior too, rum cream was too subtle and she hardly tasted any. Carly still voted for Passion fruit Mont Blanc offered at Passion by Gerard Dubois as the passion fruit mousse was very well-blended with the creamy chestnut mousse. Valerie’s own twist was not bad for its adorable design and exquisitely demonstrated skills in making intriguing chestnut mousse.
